"There are only a couple of keybindings to remember for day to day usage; C-x v i, C-x v v, C-x v =, C-x v l, C-x v m and C-x v g"

That's about 6 too many for my taste...

Most of what is gem-like about Emacs seems to be hidden.

Shame it doesn't support darcs.

My thoughts exactly on seeing this article. Looked on google and found this: http://chneukirchen.org/repos/darcsum/

Only limited support (you'll still be using the command line) but the whatsnew and record functionality is really useful (just make sure the cursor is at the bottom of the whatsnew buffer before hitting R otherwise it misses all the changes for some reason, at least on my machine)
