I found some input for the decision here: http://www.selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/2005-May/000334.html (quite old, but easy to read) http://texagon.blogspot.com/2008/02/use-mercurial-you-git.html http://www.jukie.net/~bart/blog/git-vs-hg ... and some more. >From what I have read so far it looks like we would have a good solution with both git and hg. The features seem to be more or less the same. The key advantage of git is that it is more familiar to many developers. The key advantage of hg would be a much cleaner and well designed user interface which is more attractive for people who need to get used to it.
