Avert your eyes, children, the bikeshed may assume other forms!

The three differentiators with hg are marginal and can in any case be
equalized with bookmarks (cheap local branching, which is probably least
applicable to us), cadmium (staging area), and BitBucket (GitHub). Again, I
think there are enough strengths to both to argue for enabling both (even
if there's a cost to that), and I think the strongest thing git has going
for it isn't on the list: all the cool kids already know it.
