On: Python switching to Mercurial

[cstejerean]

Until we get excellent interop between git and mercurial I'm not buying the argument that git vs hg is anything like vi vs emacs.

We've got interop already. Some Mozilla devs use git for work. Official mozilla repo is mercurial, but devs can and do use git if they prefer: http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/2008/12/changes-to-git-mirror-o...

Git has excellent interop with CVS, so I imagine excellent interop between Git and other DVSs is in our near future.

-- EDIT --

By excellent interop with CVS I obviously mean the one way CVS to Git. I'm hoping Git/Hg will go both ways.

Git's pretty good going two way with Subversion. If nothing else, perhaps Subversion could be a poor man's bridge for the time being?
