I started such an effort, but considered it not worth it, as fast-import reveals too many of the details in git's design that differ from monotone. I particularily had issues with the differences in branches, and it was seriously slowed down by keeping my own directory tree model (as git doesn't handle directories at all). Summary: I got better results quicker by building a direct translation (it was hg2mtn in that case) instead of working around the differences to get a suitable mtn-fast-import.
