Shipping hg-git by default?

[Raj Sarkar]

I cannot comment on previous posts or articles since I (or Sean) were here
at Atlassian at that time.

Honestly, the no-BS version is that we are gravitating towards what our
customers are asking for. Majority of our customers are asking for Git. Not
many are asking for Mercurial. That doesn't mean we will stop supporting
Mercurial. We hired Sean primarily for that reason. He is the biggest voice
we have inside Atlassian for Mercurial :)

Additionally, our Server product (formerly known as Stash) does not support
Mercurial and our home page primarily talks about features which are
available on both.
