because i already know and use git everyday for personal use and at work. So i know it. in mercurial i kinda know how to pull the updates. heh. just never really used it much. Not saying it isnt easy to learn or better/worse. Just that im already using git. if the core was in git i could so git submodules for the individual applications so all i would have to do is checkout web2py and update the app and i have everything. I have no idea how to set that up in mercurial or even how to mercurial in general.
