With Mercurial, I like that all commands can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix, plus some built-in aliases. So I type a lot of `hg up`, `hg pus`, `hg ci`, `hg pul`, `hg bo`, and so forth. Most of these are almost the same length as your aliases. Whenever I have to touch git and `git co` doesn't work, I think, okay, fine, we'll go through the full dress rehearsal; `git checkout` it is.

Hard to believe how git doesn't have them by default.

Plus, actually sane command names, and super powerful functionalities (for example, answering to another comment, you always could "hg blame (annotate)" an arbitrary version of a file without having to check it out first)!
