Precisely.

Because, @ work, I have to learn and understand it, as the projects
that I work & interact with use it. That hg is "better" doesn't mean that
much.

I have other projects I work on where e.g. git submodules are used
extensively. There just isn't any way around learning about git in detail.
hg I could potentially not learn, so far.

At home I might have preferred hg.

I've very glad to see that hg provides a good interface to git according
to your description. I haven't tried it yet though. I'd love to hear about it
if someone has taken it for a spin against the eCos hg test repository.
