Does that mean you were going from hg to git? Any specific reason for that? Any opinion on the two?
(I've been using git for a little bit but wonder if Mercurial could be more powerful but less popular, and that I'd be missing out)

For me, the two features I miss most in HG are the staging area and cheap local branching. There plugins that give you rough equivalents, but I haven't used them and it's much nicer to have what you need out of the box.
