You have to take that Python script and put it in your path (I put it in ~/bin) and then:
git clone bzr::/path/to/inkscape-bzr-repo inkscape-git-repo
It took about 8 minutes.
Using similar methods I was able to convert some hg repositories of mine as well.
Not what I meant. See again:
I think this will surely increase the "visibility" of Inkscape's sources and the Inkscape organisation, in general.
How?
Inkscape is quite easy to find for those that need it. Typing "free svg editor" on a search engine should be enough.
However, there probably are developers who have not heard of it, who may serendipitiously come across it on GitHub and maybe one day even contribute. (assuming Inkscape manages to get rated highly enough i.e. stars over there)
In terms of open-source project hosting websites, GitHub has a considerable number of users. Taking advantage of the free hosting provided for open-source organisations on GH, seems to me like an opportunity for greater publicity.
