I consider git the best software ever written. I used to work with some other SVCs, and I cannot thinking on leaving git now. Somehow, I feel it like a limitation for my mind.

I'm following this Jujutsu project, I'm genuinely curious to see what it can bring to the SVC scene.

My journey was CVS->SVN->darcs->Hg->git. I can thoroughly recommend at least playing around with the others to see what you're missing. Darcs in particular I remember as having a much nicer model than either git or mercurial, but it had a horrible corner case behaviour. Pijul is supposed to fix that, but I haven't tried it yet.

Have you used fossil? If so, what are your thoughts?

What motivated you to move from Mercurial? I'm still using HG for personal projects because it's so easy to self-host on a Raspberry Pi. Just `hg serve -p 8001` or whatever and I'm able to use TortoiseHG from any machine to easily stage commits.
