Firefox Development Is Moving From Mercurial To Git
(groups.google.com)
A place to discuss the news and latest developments on the open-source browser Firefox
Some amusing context (as a big Mercurial fan, myself):
According to the 2022 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, Mercurial is the 4th most popular response, beaten only by Git, Subversion, and "I don't use version control".
Git was roughly 94x as popular as Mercurial.
"I don't use version control." was a bit more than 4x as popular as Mercurial.
The fact that people still use Subversion is the real crime.
Unreal engine basically requires it for decent version control iirc. i had a nightmare trying to get git to work on my university project a few years back
It's Perforce I think, not svn.
Well that's a bummer. I guess some people love to live on the edge.
My version control strategy is the same as my birth control one: if things start to go bad, pull the plug
