For some reason, my "spider sense" (intuition? gut feeling?) doesn't tingle for bzr and launchpad, although there doesn't seem to be anything particularly wrong with them. I agree that git is at times very unintuitive, but it's sure nice and fast, and looks, perhaps together with hg (mercurial) to be "where it's at" for the immediate future. I'm actually fairly conservative about this kind of stuff... Hecl doesn't require the world's fanciest version control sytem. That said... things are moving in the direction of the distributed systems. And SF just seems to be getting worse in terms of what they provide and how well the provide it. -- David N.
