Basically yes, but incomplete: hg-git clones the git submodules via git but converts the top-level repo to Mercurial.

That's a bit annoying (I also clone most git repos as Mercurial repos using hg-git, because I can simply work much better with hg than with git: git is always a bit annoying, hg feels right and just works, even when cloning git-repos iva hg-git).

Best wishes,
Arne
