If the git repo is in read only mode and we just update the patches from the 
Hg repository, then it shouldn't be that big problem. Do you have a page/
builder/config showing how do you do the conversion?

Thanks.

But it will be a throwaway repo, no?
Or is there a scheme being concocted to keep the two repo's in sync?

How long do you estimate this license check / migration will take?

Because I don't see how the git repo would be of much help in read-only
mode.

I don't have a script per se, I just executed hg-fast-export.sh as
mentioned here:
