We live in a very dynamic "internet" universe where users (ab)use
applications/programs and extends them to the limit or even whole new usage
methods.
Our case might be the perfect example of how not to use Mercurial, but
luckily the system allows us to work like that and it fits our needs
perfectly.

We need a system to keep history of who has made which changes to what files
and that is solved with our setup. We sit next to each other and all have
the same intentions of keeping the systems running, so it's not like we fear
that one of us just starts deleting random files and denies everything if
questioned.

Best regards,
Jan
