Martin told you only half the truth: the SSH URL is (currently)
<ssh://hg@hg.python.org/repos/hooks>. I think we will change that to
remove the /repos/ part before going live with the cpython repo, but
the hg username remains, corresponding to the pythondev username for SVN.

That's correct.

The usernames and email addresses you use for commits don't matter; as
long as you can connect via SSH you can push commits with any author.
