It's like 15 years old, and came out around the same time as git (was called bazaar back then). And unlike git at the time had proper multiplatform (e.g. Windows) support. So it's not making an argument about improving on existing DVCSes... because it is an existing DVCS. We evaluated it at a shop I was a lead at back then. Worked fine enough, though we ended up using Mercurial, which had similar advantages over git -- cross platform, and CLI was more intuitive, but in most respects similar to git, etc (because it, like git, was inspired by bitkeeper, ec.). Git is... fine. But I wish the young and unaware would stop imagining that it's somehow the entire horizon of revision control.
