Hello, Mercurial.
The main project I work on, Emacs, has just converted to using git
(although not from Mercurial). What a nightmare! I'm having to get
used to things like "git clone" not exactly doing a clone, "git push"
and "git pull" not being opposites, "git log" not identifying the branch
a commit is on (and being told by others that "I don't need this") and a
lot more besides. I don't think you can be "just" a user of git; you've
got to know the internal workings to a greater or lesser extent.
By contrast, I've been using Mercurial for some while now, and know next
to nothing about its internal mechanisms. That's the way I want it to
stay! I'm just a user.
I'm grateful indeed for the simplicity and elegance of the UI to the
Mercurial system. It was easy to learn and is easy to use.
Thanks!
