To be fair I think there are a multitude of ways in which git is less sucky
than hg:
- multiple binaries
- significantly more modular design framework
- doesn't assume the user is an idiot (which is probably why so many people
have problems with it)
- there are plenty of things of *daily use* in

Yes it's a very good idea. Lets migrate everything to the One True

I don't think using git will solve anything because there's no problem
to solve. That being said, I don't mind using either git or mercurial.
The official repo should stay on suckless.org, though.

Sounds good to me. I love git, and use it everywhere else. The
interface is fine once you're used to it, and given that it's so
much more widely used than hg, more people will probably be familiar
with it than mercurial anyway.

Right, but python is also an interpreted language, so you need to have the
python runtime installed. With other revision control systems I can ( in
theory ) distribute a standalone, static linked binary without having to
deal with any deps.
