Me, I picked Python and Mercurial for primary language and DVCS, respectively: one of those worked out really well. I still miss hg and have never really gotten the hang of git.

Regarding Mercurial, would you happen to have recommendations for a GitHub/Bitbucket-like service that still works with hg?

Use "jujutsu" (jj).

It's the goodness of Mercurial but works in the crappy world that Git has bestowed upon us.

I made the switch from Mercurial because it's just getting too hard to fight the git monoculture. :(


This looks cool; I might wait for 1.0, but the idea of git underneath and something better on top is appealing.


If you just want an online repository, go with Sourcehut (https://sourcehut.org/)
