GIT, because it has the best performance and are backed by large projects like the Linux kernel, Wine, etc.
May I add that Mercurial has Python dependencies, while git are written in C.
If I were to bet who outlasts who, I would put my money on GIT. Also, considering GIT is so simple by design, I foresee it will be used in many other cases than source code management. As it is just a matter of creating new high level porcelain, like say, revision control. ;) How about that Linus?
- setori88 17y agoDude, listen to the requirements and treat technology as is it a set of tools in a plumbers box. What makes a size 16 spanner better than a size 15 spanner?
- mbrubeck 17y ago"backed by large projects like the Linux kernel, Wine, etc." Mercurial is used and backed by large projects like Mozilla, Google Code, OpenOffice, Solaris, and Python. (In my own opinion, git and mercurial are both best-of-breed, and I'm a happy user of both tools.)
