I don't understand the git momentum. I've use hg heavily, and am generally
happy with it.
Every time I have to use git, I have a terrible time. I find it vastly more
complicated than hg. The docs (in the form of man pages) I find never answer my
questions. Each one seems to cover 100 different topics, variations and corner
cases. Trying to read this requires a vast new vocabulary or arcane terms.
hg also has tortoisehg, which is a very nice mature gui. There is nothing like
that for git. I have found 1 or 2 guis that are extremely limited in function.
