yeah, he must be a genius for kids that just installed their first shitty linux distro and think that's the top.

Git is a piece of shit people praise it just because Linus wrote it

Is it sad that I named my son after Linus? His middle name is Linus... :D

You are the only idiot here.

Linus mentioned "Mercurial" a few times... this might also give you a sense of how both of them compares to each other. Read the transcript in the Git web site.
diegoev (June 25, 2008 at 4:06 am)
Git is written in pure C, hence, Git is faster than Mercurial... Mercurial is written in Python. And there is nothing wrong with talking about Linux here.
diegoev (June 25, 2008 at 4:03 am)
He already compared it: "One of them is obviously git. And you really should pick that one. But the other one is Mercurial, which actually has pretty much the same design. There are huge differences in implementation and there are some differences in the detail, but it boils down to a very similar model. Git just does it better. Everything else, it's either centralized, or it's too unstable or too slow to use for anything big."
