I'm not sure git is so bad that we need something different. It's certainly awkward at times, but it is also mostly a side-tool: not the thing you think of when you think of being a developer, yet every dev uses it. I suspect most people use just a tiny subset of git day-to-day, and google the rest when it comes up. For this reason, I think if git is replaced, it won't be because whatever comes along will be better objectively, it will be because a few reasons are touted that most people don't understand but are willing to repeat, and some momentum builds behind the alternative.
