I am certainly no expert in version control systems, but I've gotta say that it's really wonderful to see a project that builds on the algorithmic and cultural successes of Git but with a simplified and modernized approach. The reason that Git took over the open-source world is two-fold: first, it was adopted by Linux, which ended up being the most influential OSS project of all time. Second, the Git model, which is distributed and egalitarian at its core, is a natural model for a fast-paced, globally distributed community of developers. These are both reasons to appreciate Git, but they do not imply that Git is the final word in version control. I'm excited to see innovation in this space!
