In a way you're perfectly right: Git is just enough for everything you ever want to do, there isn't really any need for Mercurial. But then, after many years of using it I got rather familiar with Mercurial, I know by heart how to find in the log the revision I want to check out, how to check that revision out, how to apply little patches to the code to satisfy my own needs or that of my compiler ... I have more or less automated the process of cloning or pulling a repos- itory, convert it to Mercurial, if the original upstream repository is Git, Svn, or Bzr, and building/updating the program it provides. So I would simply prefer to stay with Mercurial. But since up to now nobody else replied to my original question I'd like to repeat it here: are the "convert" or "hg-git" extensions capable of dealing with Git's submodules?
