5. Allows vanilla git and hg on the client side, but requires
something complex, custom, and scary on the server side to allow
pushing to either repo. Could be possible if we eliminate ~all manual
pushes (i.e. everything goes via autoland), but cinnabar or similar is
still there in the background.
If the Gecko repository that developers clone is synced with cinnabar
(which is how I sync mozilla/gecko, and which folks've discussed doing
with mozilla/gecko-dev for years), then the scary server-side thing
could be a Git repository synced with cinnabar that forwards pushes to
the current tryserver.
That's essentially the same amount of scariness as is currently the case
(i.e. cinnabar), except, as ekr noted, it is only maintained on the
server rather than on each individual developer's machine.
