We don't have to.

Why would it be any difference? It's a hex version of the SHA-1
digest. It would be the same in every language and every tool.

And a bit of context: historically the reason I started remote-bzr was
to show that we didn't need the *huge* infrastructure that is sitting
git_remote_helpers, which is nothing compared to what was prepared to
be merged for msysgit's remote-hg. I wrote it as a proof-of-concept to
show we didn't need a framework, and if we do, it would only be clear
after having _two_ remote helpers, which we now do. It might make
sense to refactor the common parts into a framework later on, so
having them in sync as much as it's reasonably possible makes sense.

But if even if it wasn't, there's nothing wrong with this patch. Also,
who knows, maybe old versions of mercurial don't have util.sha1(), or
maybe newer ones will move it, who knows.

Cheers.
