Hi


I first cloned, using git, the auctex[1] pkg via

git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/auctex.git

Then I did the same via the hg-git plugin 


Hg  clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/auctex.git

 git branch -a gave  (in the cloned git dir)
 master
  remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
  remotes/origin/gendocspatch
  remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/simplify-TeX-parse-error

While  (in the cloned hg dir)

 hg bookmark gave 


   gendocspatch              6288:6d1b307d15ea
 * master                    6831:ca281aeb1e42
   simplify-TeX-parse-error  6696:1ea19cbde4cc

So that seemed ok,

But then I tried out to clone the cloned git directory that is

 hg clone auctex-git auctex-hg-local

That worked but then (in auctex-hg-local)  I obtained 

 hg bookmark gave
 master                    6831:ca281aeb1e42

So the bookmarks where not cloned. How could  I achieve this?

I am asking because I already cloned via git GNU emacs and don't want to
run hg clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git because it would need
the whole day.
