Ah, thanks for testing with 2.4. Looks like it could use some fixes. For
2.4  (googled) the try with finally needs to be nested:

try:
    try:
        return client.fetch_pack(path, determine_wants, graphwalker,
f.write, self.ui.status)
    except HangupException:
        raise hgutil.Abort("the remote end hung up unexpectedly")
finally:
    commit()
