This primitive solution is for the moment enough for me

(defun my-hg-checkin-on-save ()
  "This is a trivial command for commiting on every save!"
  (interactive)
  (shell-command "hg ci -m \"Automatic commit on file save \" "))   

(define-minor-mode hg-auto-commit-mode
  "Automatically commit any changes made when saving with this mode turned on."
  :lighter " AHG"
  (if hg-auto-commit-mode
      (add-hook 'after-save-hook 'my-hg-checkin-on-save t t)
    (remove-hook 'after-save-hook 'my-hg-checkin-on-save t)))

And then at the end of the day I rebase all this commits to a single one.

Of course, if I added files etc, I need a more sophisticated solution.
