For what it's worth, I think Hg is an easier sell to mid-size companies transitioning from SVN to a DVCS. With Git, you need to absorb a certain "git mentality" to really understand what all of the commands are; with Hg it seems like I just need to say "you COMMIT and UPDATE from this hidden folder on your drive, then you PUSH and PULL from that hidden folder to these other hidden folders in other places." If it makes you feel better, at one point at this job I replayed a bunch of SVN changes through Hg because there were a bunch of independent updates that needed to be grouped into different branches, so that I could finally find out that the cause of the bugs in the code was that someone had changed `if (x == "true")` statements into `if (x)` statements...
