While many may say that that is a half-baked solution, I actually like it.  
Mercurial and Git are pretty similar in their concept (if not in how the 
data is actually stored).

Note that with git fast-export and hg fast-import, it should be relatively 
simple to convert from one data format to the other, even incrementally.

And for the other direction, you could use hg fast-export from the 
fast-export.git repository (I am working on a better one at the moment, 
too, so that incremental fast-export would be possible, too).

Ciao,
Dscho
