Which means both said features are present in Git at the very least. Also, Git does seem like a more popular option than Mercurial, so I think going Git would be a better choice, or many of us and potential newcomers would have to learn a new tool which they may potentially disagree with. In my case, the more I read about Mercurial, the more I dislike it, but that's a different matter. -- Kind regards, Chow Loong Jin
