The only think that worries me is that most of the time people choose the service and not the tool. On one hand you have Mercurial, a more than capable DVCS with the lowest barrier of entry IMHO (you will love it while you learn it), and the very good service that is Bitbucket, now kind of

If I could vote I'd vote for mercurial, but then again, I bet having PHP on github will increase contributions very quickly. which is pointless if we can't easily accept/merge the pull requests from the github clone. :/ git itself is a powerful tool, but as AFAIK most of the people in this

I'm fine with git and I think moving to something like that together with up-to-date tools to contribute (or review patches etc.) will help a lot. But I would prefer to keep the (core) infrastructure at PHP internally. It's just *so* much easier to integrate tools, add things like hooks for the

I'm not familiar enough with Mercurial to properly vote, but am guessing we'll move to Git. Git is popular because Github is popular, and Github is popular because it's awesome. But I think we should skip git.php.net and mirrors/bridges, and simply move to Github. And this means people who
