Git stores an snapshot and Hg stores a delta. Perhaps Mackall's design is better overall, but in practice I'm not sure it makes a huge difference. I've read a number of Git vs. Hg blogs and I see plenty of arguments going both ways. The only reason I lean more toward Git is that it seems to the momentum. I've had always been the kind of guy to go for the superior tech, you know, but about a year ago I started to realize there's value in going with the flow sometimes --which is why I switched my project from Darcs to SVN actually. Ironic though, b/c soon thereafter many started jumping from SVN to Git. Anyhow, I don't think it's fair to call Git a fad. But I think Hg is good choice too.
