Git & GitHub seems to get all the attention in the Perl world nowadays. Since perl itself is on git, a lot of people are attracted to Git & GitHub (or so I think). So, why do you choose /Git(hub)?/i over Mercurial/Bitbucket or vice versa? Is it because
- You are a cargo cult follower
- perl is on Git, so It's logical to use git for my own things
-
- All the CPAN celebrities are on GitHub
- GitHub already built a Perl community in it why bother with other cr@p? I can't live alone
- There is this big hype about git
- Bitbucket is an exact copy of GitHub. Lame lame lame!
- Git is faster
- Git has more features
- Hg has more features
- Git has no native (yeah yeah I know that msysgit thing) Windows port. So, hg is better
- You like hg commands
- Something else? Please explain
Well, you can also explain why Git & Hg both sux if you're using another VCS for your projects :) Me? I choose Hg mainly because Git lacks native Windows port and Hg seemed more familiar after a long Perforce experience.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
