On: Mercurial: Onward and upward

What a silly comment. If using git is suffering to you, then don't. You know what? I hate peas. You know what else? I don't eat them.

You know why git won? HG was slow as molasses when they both showed up on the scene. That and git's branches are a dream come true. I think back then, an HG branch was a clone of the repo.

I can't figure out what sort of suffering people are talking about.

Well, we can't avoid git. Being allergic to git is like being allergic to water.

There are ways around it like hg-git, but they can't really hide the git underneath. We have to use git or be computer hermits.
