Exactly, that's what I'm planning to do: use hg-git to maintain a mirror
on Github while leaving our main repo on Bitbucket.

I do a lot of work in Mercurial and prefer it, but I think it is
mostly a matter of which dcvs you started with. When I have to
contribute code with die hard git folks (which it turns out are all
git folks) I have used http://hg-git.github.io/. It works amazingly
well at pushing to git repos and pulling them back to your computer as
an hg repo. Anyone who was so inclined could easily use it to mirror
a mercurial database to github

Hi Joseph,
Thanks for putting the issue forward. I think we really need to
move, either to Github or Bitbucket because GoogleCode is quite
limited, and there is an increased interest on new contributions.
The easiest path for now is just to move to BitBucket. As I said
in Issue 816, I love Mercurial and TortoiseHg and I'm very
comfortable with both; in contrast git seems too command line
oriented. Pierre also mentioned a while back that he doesn't have
time to learn a new VCS, and since he is still by far our largest
contributor and the man behind the great design that supports
Spyder, I wouldn't like to leave him out. Besides Bitbucket is not
that far away of GitHub feature-wise, and this will be far less
disruptive until we finish 2.3.
I think it won't be that hard to create a read/write mirror on
Github for people who wants to send their pull requests through
it, which I plan to investigate after 2.3. That way we could have
both worlds at once without too many problems.
Cheers,
Carlos

<https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/spyderlib/5tw2ZItlxUM>
remind me of http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/issues/detail?id=816.
Google code clearly lacks functionalities compared to Bitbucket
and Github (the main one being pull requests, I think). In
addition to this is the eventuality to shift to git instead of
mercurial.
Disclaimer: I'm currently a git user so I'm biased and I don't
know mercurial very well
From the tip of my head, here are the pros and cons I can find
for each service :
*Bitbucket/Mercurial
*+ Uses mercurial and git. This allows to keep mercurial as VCS.
+ TortoiseHg
- less users
*
Github/Git
*- Git only
+ numpy, scipy, ipython and matplotlib use it
+ more users
- tracker data has a proprietary format (but is it important ?)
*
*There is also the possibility to have read/write mirror I guess,
but I have no clue of how it works...
*
*Why I prefer Git over Mercurial :
+ 2-stage commits helps to check the correctness of commits
+ easy selection line by line or block by block instead of whole
files for commits (using git gui)
+ git stash
