> the way mg, bzr and the rest do the advanced stuff [when available] is basically a carbon copy of git. I'm a pretty big fan of git, but this is an unproductive stance. I don't know much about bzr, but my impression is that darcs pioneered the ideas that became git-rebase, and elsewhere in this thread people are having substantive discussions about hg (Mercurial; I assume that's what you meant by mg) bookmarks and branches vs git branches: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13229582 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13229582
