the git-hg bridge

[Christian Brabandt]

Hi,
currently I am experiencing some problems with the git-mercurial bridge.

I don't know exactly what is going on, but it seems, mercurial does not
like patches generated by git anymore and aborts imported patches. This
seems to happen quite often with updated translations.

Not sure, why it starts failing now, since this used to work for years.

Apologize for this situation and the messy hg logs :(

Thanks,
Christian

I have been providing this as a service for people who do not like git.

For some reasons, my mails to vim...@vim.org seem to be blocked...

Best,
Christian

I dont' want to start yet another flame war on this topic (though I wouldn't mind, considering how I feel about git).

I use mercurial's hggit extension and find it interoperates fine with github. I used the mercurial bridge starting when it was first available, then about a year ago switch to using hggit directly to the main vim github repository. I seem to remember that with the bridge there were two log entries per patch, but using hggit there was only one.

This might be the extra tag for each commit.

Thanks,
