Convert from mercurial to Mercurial two times

Both solutions worked fine. I have used the first one as it avoids me to 
modify mercurial system files.
Thank you very much.

The problem is probably caused by convert incremental conversion support: it remembers it has converted these revisions from the source repository and skip them during the second run, even if the conversion parameters are different.
