Still salty about them dropping mercurial support without providing any migration tools, and planning to just delete data without any archiving.
For hg->git migration, https://github.com/frej/fast-export worked smoothly for me.
mkdir new-git-repo
cd new-git-repo
git init
fast-export/hg-fast-export.sh -r ../path-to-old-hg-repo
(probably want to translate .hgignore to .gitignore and commit it)
git remote add origin git@path_to:git_server
git push -u origin master
git push --all1) this afaik couldn't be done inside the BB project, so one would have had to create a new repo and lose bug history etc.
2) It's a trust thing. If BB kills repos once, who doesn't say they won't kill others tomorrow?
3) Comfort: Import to GitHub is a click away
If github goes downhill, at least I'll be in good company next time!
