Oh dear.  I didn't praise anything.  I simply provided data about the
popularity of Git and Mercurial within the community of  independent
Emacs developers, which indicates that Git is by far the most popular
DVCS among these developers.  That's a fact, like it or not.

I didn't make any judgement as to whether this is good or bad, or even
relevant at all. Do whatever you want with it.
