OK, I'm beginning to be convinced Mercurial is kind of lacking
(compared to git) if the only way for 99% of us to use it is to only
use queues.
To be fair, it's more our workflow than mercurial itself. You have pull
requests and things like that with Mercurial (ala bitbucket). Phases,
in Mercurial 2.1, look pretty neat as well.
The main things I miss in hg are:
1. a staging area
2. proper "topic branch" support for multiple heads. It's there with
bookmarks, but it doesn't seem very well supported to have multiple
heads, remote tracking branches, etc.
Those are the main reasons why I use git for anything I can. Well, that
and the fact that most of the scientific python community seems to be
using git...
