Hg is going to usually be something you pick up slightly faster. It is between much and very on the intuitive scale. On the same note, once you get to competency (between 2 weeks and 4 months of use, depending on the person), git is more easy to manipulate and do the sort of things you often have to do when working with people on a project. While somewhat unintuitive in some of the commands or the default arguments you may need, git is perfectly decipherable and memorable once you do get through the initial period. Additionally, as git is often handled on the command line (even by people who'd usually use GUI programs), it LOOKS more intimidating, but it seems a few weeks in, people are getting by with Hg (As they don't have to get what's going on) however can do pretty complicated stuff in git (as you have to get what's happening or you will be lost).
