The Python language recently migrated from SVN to Mercurial as their version
control system. As part of this effort, a detailed migration plan was
written:

http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0385/

Now, I'm not proposing that we favor using Mercurial over Git*. But I would
suggest that perhaps you could use the Python migration plan as a template
for LLVM's migration.

(*I use both Mercurial and Git on a regular basis. Although I think Git's
branching and history model makes more sense, as a command-line tool I find
Mercurial significantly easier to use for day-to-day work.)
