> Here's a super common workflow that's easy in BitKeeper and miserable in Git. I'm debugging an assert. I want to see who added the assert. I pop into the gui that shows me the per file graph and contents, search for the assert, hover over the rev and see that it was done a long time ago. I look in the area above the assert and I see a recent change, hover over that, see the comments and go "hmm, maybe this". Double click that line and I pop into a different gui that shows me the whole commit that contains that suspect line. I may be misunderstanding that particular workflow (I'm sadly unfamiliar with bitkeeper), but this seems like a workflow that I accomplish relatively often with the use of tig[1]. On a separate note: thank you for the wonderfully detailed reply. It's such a pleasure to have an opposing view be so thoroughly explained.

Sometimes the internet is the worst.
