Lets be very clear here: the choice between git / bzr / hg in
comparison to the tasks developers perform approach 0 relevance.
Typing "bzr commit" vs. "git commit" does not matter to anyone when we
are working on thousands of lines of source and intricate packaging.
Launchpad has been built around bzr, and as someone who likes to get
things done and not send emails, that is an easy and pragmatic choice.
If you would like a more detailed email summarizing how to do commands
and operations between hg / git / bzr, I will be more than happy to
provide it so we can focus on the big picture. We could also offer an
IRC class if there is enough interest, it could easily be done in
under an hour.
Thanks,
Steve
