To say nothing of the fact that comparing git to svn or cvs is disingenuous; it should be compared against its peers, the fleet of candidates in the distributed source control management (DSCM) space.

I wonder how large that friction is. I look at git, mercurial, etc as distributed version control first and foremost, and that they're more alike than different. It could be that I witnessed the popular adoption of all this via Linux
