Thanks for the patches, Paul.

I actually think that "hg-git" deserves more love. For some of us, it is
what allows us to keep using Mercurial instead of "downgrading" to git.
It should be better maintained and follow current Mercurial better.

I appreciate the effort and gives me value every day, all of us are
volunteers, but breaking constantly is... stressful. And it is painfully
slow too :(.

Maybe some mercurial core devels, knowing that hg-git provides huge
value to mercurial ecosystem, could help hg-git to cope with mercurial
API churning.
