Excellent idea! I have not heard of a French translation.

As for how to best do it, you might be able to get some tips from the
guys who did the Spanish translation. There are links here:

  http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/MercurialBook

It would probably be a good idea to inform others about your translation
by linking to it from that page.

Apart from the Hg book, you can also translate Mercurial itself:

But only if you have energy left after the book :-)
