Hi,

ts Git repositories. Since there is `hg-download`, it would make sense that=
 the command `guix download` support Mercurial.

Indeed, only Git is supported at this point.  Supporting Mercurial and
other VCSes would be nice though there=E2=80=99s no plan to do so at this p=
oint
(Git support was a low-hanging fruit since Git is already tightly
integrated).

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.

https://foss.heptapod.net/fluiddyn/fluidsim is a Mercurial repository.

```
guix download --commit=62c4dbe4f786 https://foss.heptapod.net/fluiddyn/fluidsim
```

fails with:

```
SWH: revision "62c4dbe4f786" originating from https://foss.heptapod.net/fluiddyn/fluidsim could not be found
guix download: warning: revision 62c4dbe4f786 of https://foss.heptapod.net/fluiddyn/fluidsim could not be fetched from Software Heritage
guix download: error: Git error: unexpected http status code: 404
```

I studied `guix download -h` which shows that `guix download` only supports Git repositories. Since there is `hg-download`, it would make sense that the command `guix download` support Mercurial.
