I've looked at many hg<->git tools and none satisfy me. Too complicated, or too
slow, or to difficult to setup, etc.

I run into this every few months, evaluate all of the options, and come
to the same conclusion. So I am excited at the prospect of something
simple that just works out of the box.

Unfortunately, when I tried it, it did not work for me. :(

Ok, I've fixed all those issues:
http://github.com/felipec/git/blob/fc-remote-hg/contrib/remote-hg/git-remote-hg

Right now I've just added an error when using remote repositories. But
it seems there's no way around it; if we want to have support for
remote repos, we need to make a local clone.

But at the moment it should fail at this point, I wonder why you get
the errors below.

This is weird.

I think I know why the errors above show up; even though the helper
dies, transport-helper doesn't check the status until the very end.

Something like this should do the trick:
