Well, of course there is also the Hg-Git mercurial plugin, which  
allows using the Mercurial client against a Git repository. So if  
somebody is used to HG / prefers it, they could just use that against  
a hypothetical ScummVM Git repository. The latest versions seem to  
make this integration completely transparent, too, see <http://hg-git.github.com/
