For simple workflows (and certainly for beginners), hg is far easier to use than git. However when it comes to advanced usage, I personally find git more intuitive and frankly more powerful.
Granted, I learned git first and had been using it for 6 years before using hg.
- prodigal_erik 10y agoSearch results for "how do I branch in Mercurial" always seem to lead to elaborate tutorials that suggest repo clones or bookmarks or numbered anonymous heads or smuggling diffs outside the commit graph using an extension. If the simple use cases don't include branching, that seems like a big problem for a DVCS.
