We use git at work pretty heavily and it is very fast and scalable.
But it has some annoying dependencies (curl) and uses some
concepts that I personally find deeply confusing. Currently I use
4 or 5 simple commands and get along with it, but this is a tool
that makes me uncomfortable.

I must say that I like mercurial. It's simple to use. I like that. I think
that is a property that is neglected too often.
