@lritter I guess my worry with hg-git is that it'd be like using a Dvorak keyboard — sure, it's easier while I'm doing it, but I still need to know how to type on Qwerty but now I'm context switching

@andrewt it's not just a frontend - the local repo is in mercurial format. i used mercurial for the past 15 years; but since service for hg is growing scarce and undersupported, i now also use it transparently with an online git repo. been doing so since a few years. never had to fiddle with git directly once. only snag to take care of is to maintain a bookmark.current in the .hg folder so hg auto-updates the master/whatever-it-is-now-called tag.
