hg vs Github

At best, this is apples to oranges in comparing a DVCS to a platform, or was the intention to change the subject to "hg vs git"? If so, then it's promoting a developer tool war in the same vein as the never ending vim vs emacs and will likely only result in continued dissension. IMHO, there's really no point in continuing this discussion past decisions to be made by a select few in the thread discussing PEP 481.

I think even the proponents concede that git isn't better enough to justify a switch in repositories. There are also many who find the Bitbucket tools more usable than the Github tools. I'm not aware of any functional differences (though I don't often use Github myself), but the Bitbucket UIs have a much cleaner feel to them.
