[Python-apps-team] Bug#883469: mercurial-git: needs to be updated to work with mercurial 4.4.1

[derfel]

Package: mercurial-git
Version: 0.8.9-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

With the new mercurial 4.4.1 in sid mercurial-git cannot work anymore. A sample
error is:

$ hg log
abort: cannot import name peerrepository!

Mercurial don't work anymore even if the upstream repository is mercurial
and not git. So, basically, you cannot use mercurial anymore without disabling
the extension in hgrc or updating to the latest upstream version which is
already fixed.
