Keep in mind that 95% of the users will only use the very simple commands. For myself I have copied and adjusted the small scripts I used for Mercurial. Typing "git pull" and "hg pull" isn't that much different... > Bram, is there a chance you'd be willing to also push to a Mercurial > mirror using one of the various bridge methods, either automatically > via repository hook or manually when you push patches to the public > repo? I do not plan to push to more than one repository, as the use is very limited. But if someone wants to setup an automatic mechanism to mirror a repository, e.g. on Bitbucket, that's fine. We can mention this on the vim.org pages. Although using Mercurial to pull from Github is likely to work for most people. > If so, are we definitely set on GitHub?

There is not going to be a place that 100% of the users are 100% happy with. Of course there will be some pain when switching over, it is unavoidable. Also when sticking with Mercurial (as I have experienced with Zimbu already). -- User: I'm having problems with my text editor. Help desk: Which editor are you using?
