I also don't think that the darcs model has much to offer over git, in
fact I find that it lacks some useful features (not counting a
reliable implementation).  Examples include good support for
branching, and being able to easily determine the version of the
software that is in a repository (git uses a hash of the content to
identify the current state, so it is easy to check if we two
developers have the same version of the content).

By the way, git's UI is really not as bad as people seem to think.
For everyday development "git gui" works very well, and provides a
nice GUI that lets you see what you have modified, choose what you
want to record, and push/pull from other repos.
