If the hg is new enough that it comes with the bookmarks
extension, then you can install a separate extension
that will make it handle git too.  I have been using hg to
manipulate git repositories and find it far more pleasant
than using git directly.

  http://hg-git.github.com/
  http://bitbucket.org/abderrahim/hg-git/

The code at the second URL, which is a newer fork
of the first URL's code, makes it almost transparent:

  hg clone git://asdfkjasdfadsf
  hg commit
  hg push
  hg pull -u

They all just work.
