Import and SHA stability
========================
Currently it's only supported to map one hg repository to one git
repository. However, all forks of a hg repo can be imported into one git
repo each and then merged together (e.g. as different branches in the
final git repo) since the checksums are stable, i.e. one particular hg
changeset always produces the same git SHA1 checksum.
