Mercurial just got an extension which makes it possible to work transparently with git repositories. - http://hg-git.github.com/ It's still beta, and it doesn't yet work with the fred repo, but it should make it possible for those who were bitten once too often by git (for example me) to still contribute to freenet. Since there's a GSOC Student working on a hg-git bridge, I'm quite sure that this will quickly become stable. And I really like it, because it amends a split in the free software community. Generally you can find Mercurial extensions at - http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/UsingExtensions Best wishes, Arne --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- - singing a part of the history of free software - http://infinite-hands.draketo.de
