Comment(by leif):

 Replying to [comment:51 jhpalmieri]:
 > One small issue: as you said, `.hg/hgrc` is not transferred during
 clones, so if you "sage -clone ...", the "git" setting is lost for that
 repo.  If people don't work with clones, or if they use the version of
 Mercurial distributed with Sage, or if they have "git=1" in their own
 `.hgrc` file, this won't affect them.  I suppose we could rewrite the file
 in the `sage-clone` script, but I don't know if it's worth it.  Opinions?

 As this falls into the category of surprising (if not annoying)
 "features", I'd say `sage-clone` should then copy it over.

 Disclaimer: Doesn't affect me personally. ;-)
