I use hg as a front end to git, so I get the advantages of git's mindshare without having to deal with git's UI. Now I get the best of both worlds.

- krupan 11y agoIf I ever am forced to use git I'm hoping I can do this. Does it work well? I'm being forced to use svn right now at work and hgsubversion is a little rough around the edges.
- david-given 11y agoReally well. The one stumbling block is that git branches are mapped on to hg bookmarks, and it's not quite seamless --- I haven't figured out all the subtleties yet, but it doesn't seem to get bookmark deletion right, for example (the bookmark will reappear the next time you do an hg pull). I use github as a backend, so I tend to do branch manipulation using the github UI, so this isn't an issue for me. Everything else Just Works. Highly recommended.
