Can I push from a git rpository to an hg repository using SourceTree?

The remote repository is hosted on SourceTree?

Hi, welcome to the Community! Sourcetree is not a hosting service, it's a graphical interface for Git and Hg commands, did you mean the repository is hosted in Bitbucket?

Your question is more of a Git-related question than a Sourcetree-related question, as it depends on whether Git allows you to do such thing. I haven't used this, but it might be the solution to what you want to achieve git-hg. It's a set of scripts for checking out and tracking a mercurial project from git. Note that the tool is from a third party so we can not guarantee it will work, if you have any questions I recommend you contact his author :)

Hope that helps!

Sorry. Yes, I meant the repository is hosted on Bitbucket. My question was - can I use git-hg (or a similar solution) from within Sourcetree.

Hi Ben, theoretically you can use it. If it works transparently for git, then Sourcetree should work with it, but please keep in mind this is something we don't support (as in we won't be able to help you with it if it doesn't work). I have word from some colleagues that they tried git-svn in Sourcetree and it worked, although they had to do some work in Sourcetree to enable it.

I don't know what's your reason to need that feature, but maybe you would be interested to convert the repo to mercurial entirely, in that case you can check https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ConvertExtension.

Whatever your decision is, please let us know, we're also interested to know if you could use it successfully!

Kind regards!
