Moving to Git seems like a no brainer to me: we only have to move IronPython

Where I'm torn is that IronPython is between a rock and a hard place -
on the one hand, I want to work closely with the Mono project (which
would strongly imply using github), but I also want to be in sync with
the Python community (which has largely embraced hg).

Python's separated stdlib will be a Mercurial repo, and if IronPython
were in Hg we could easily pull in the stdlib as a subrepo. However, I
presume the DLR will stay on github, and we'll need to pull that in as
well, which of course would be easier from git.

Damned if we do, damned if we don't. I'm leaning towards Mercurial
because I prefer it, and it seems like many other people do as well. I
know hg can pull from git, but I don't know about the reverse.

IIRC mercurial has git support.
