You need to ask Douglas about -hg issues. He is the actual maintainer of that tree.
It is probably a good idea to merge also from fixes.git tree, but this may make
his sync process more complicated, so, it is up to him to decide how to do it.

I still thinking on having a better way to have those fixes patches merged earlier
on -git, but I'll need to have some time to do some scripting and test some things.

About half of the developers are submitting git requests, so it seems that
there are people using it.
