hgsubversion is an extension for Mercurial that allows using Mercurial as a Subversion client. It has been chosen by the Python developers as the preferred method for transitioning from Subversion to Mercurial as their version control system, once it is production quality.{{Cite web|url=https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0385|title=PEP 385 -- Migrating from Subversion to Mercurial|publisher=Python.org|date=25 May 2009|access-date=27 July 2021|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210616071958/https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0385/|archive-date=16 June 2021}}
