I don't matter if the repositories change or not, I am using git now, but if
you want some reasons I am going to give you some of then:
- History rewriting: git rebase or git filter-branch
- Mail workflow support: git am, git format-patch or git email.
- Incremental commits: git add -i, git checkout -f.
- A diary of tip references: git reflog (this features saved my life a
lot of times).
- Temporal changes: git stash.
- Be scriptable: git has a low-level set of commands that allow build
any operation you need using a shell script : git commit-tree, git
cat-file, git ls-tree ...
There are others reasons, like for example the speed changing between
branches, but they are not important in suckless projects.
