Hmm, so Mercurial is intended as the natural upgrade from Subversion just as Subversion is the
natural upgrade from CVS.  I never knew that.

I see there is even <http://tortoisehg.sourceforge.net/> for Windows.

I don't count "unable to push" as a "natural upgrade", maybe it is a conceptual extension
though.  git-svn let me push code to SVN 9 months ago, but that reeks like the start of a
flame war, so let's not, ok? :)  Git clearly is NOT ... neither upgrade nor extension ...
anything like SVN, by clear (Linus') intent.  (Food for another flame war, oh well.)
