> Part of my work is getting scientists to use version control. I kid you not, there are many here who follow the advice: Before you try to put it into git, make a backup.

They don't trust SVN, despite having used it for years. I don't know why you think it would be better with hg. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink.
