As a purely factual matter, this can't be correct as Matt Mackall started work on Mercurial after reading Linus Torvalds announce he'd got the very initial bare-bones of git working. (It all began as a difference of opinion about whether whole-file checkpointing (git) or tracking patches (mercurial) was the better fundamental approach.) To all practical purposes they are the same age. You might have meant "since long before git became user-friendly enough", but that's a slighty different statement. -- cheers, dave tweed__________________________ computer vision reasearcher: david.tw...@gmail.com "while having code so boring anyone can maintain it, use Python." -- attempted insult seen on slashdot
