Sounds reasonable to me. Given that this mercurial/bzr love-in is
about to take place it might be good to see what they do ..
hg bundle FILE DEST
create a changegroup file
Generate a compressed changegroup file collecting all changesets
not found in the other repository.
This file can then be transferred using conventional means and
applied to another repository with the unbundle command. This is
useful when native push and pull are not available or when
exporting an entire repository is undesirable. The standard file
extension is ".hg".
Unlike import/export, this exactly preserves all changeset
contents including permissions, rename data, and revision history.
Sounds kinda similar :)
cheers
