Mozilla switching to Mercurial

April 13th, 2007

There was some news yesterday: Mozilla is adopting Mercurial. The article has some insight into their reasons for picking Mercurial as well. (The comments they make about the CVS conversion process perhaps reference tailor, convert-repo, or cvs2hg; Mercurial proper doesn’t have a built-in CVS importer)
