While Mercurial is a fine choice, I think there are more Haskellers
that use Git than Mercurial. Probably because GitHub is such an
awesome service.

Interesting. It will be great to see any numbers (really, just curious).

bitbucket seems to be ok too :) For me who got used to darcs Mercurial just 
seemed so much leaner, simpler etc.. And it presumably have better support on 
Windows btw (I personally only use Macs though).

No real numbers. I've just observed what other Haskellers talk about
and where I usually find projects (when they are not in Darcs). We
could probably pull the numbers of Hackage.

Probably most valuable are the opinions of GHC development team of course :) 
Git really seem to be more popular, Mercurial just seem more streamlined to me 
:)

Absolutely true :)

For what it's worth, Mercurial generally interoperates quite well with git
and github, using the hg-git plugin. As a longtime Mercurial user and an
occasional GHC contributor, it wouldn't be a practical problem for me if GHC
were to switch to git.
