We've been expending a lot of effort experimenting with alternatives to
BK...

The current favourite is mercurial (hg). It's just annoying that it
currently lacks renames and per-file checkin comments. The former is
particularly annoying as we'll end up with segmented revision history
for all the linux sparse tree files.

Has anyone on the list got any useful experience to relate on using hg?
