The majority of the work has already been done, and the decision to use
mercurial over git has already been made by the eCos maintainers some
time ago.  I believe the only work outstanding is to update the
documentation and then to start publishing the hg repository on sourceware.

In the meantime, the eCos repository is already published in hg form at
https://hg-pub.ecoscentric.com/ecos/

As for the discussion and choice of hg over git, just search the
ecos-discuss archives...
