mercurial is slow as fuck

seriously, it just caused my entire virtual machine to become unresponsive for 10 FUCKING MINUTES. this shit is unacceptable.

I don't think GIT is so slow when it comes to cloning. I started cloning a mercurial repo a couple of hours ago and it's still not finished.

I've used both Mercurial and Git and I can say that I like git better. At the time we moved to git, rebasing in hg... let's just say I gave up trying to do it.

Some of the repos on my work are CVS.  I once was close to requesting
that unbreakable diamond screen monitor so that I can punch it when I
have CVS rage (and I have it every time I am trying to do something
non-trivial) without damaging company equipment, while also venting
the stress to protect my brain.

that's what you get for using a FIOC vcs rather than one written in C (git)
