Subject: Why git instead of mercurial?

It seems like the hot new thing these days in Ruby-land is to host
your project in git. Cool....I'm very glad distributed vc is finally
getting the attention it deserves.

However, I'm curious...why are so many in the Ruby community flocking
to git instead of mercurial? It seems that Python/C would be a more
appealing choice than Perl/C...and given that they're largely
feature-identical. I'd appreciate any additional insight you might
provide.

Thanks!
John
