6796d49 introduced a bug by making shared_path == ".git/hg' which
will most likely exist already, causing a new remote never to be
cloned and subsequently causing hg.share to fail with error msg:
"mercurial.error.RepoError: repository .git/hg not found"

Changing shared_path to ".git/hg/.shared" will solve this problem
Here you say "shared" and the code says "share"; which one is
preferred (I know either would work, but we would want to be
consistent).

I'd vote for "shared", but I do not see a compelling reason to pick
one over the other so...?
quoted hunk
and create a shared local mercurial repository for non local remotes.
The initial dot circumvents a name clash problem should a remote be
called "shared".
