As everyone else has discovered, I’ve just realized how nice DVCS can be. Of course, I’m part of several open source projects that all happen to use Subversion. I’ve tried Bazaar, Mercurial, Git and SVK. Of all these, Mercurial is the one I really, really like. But here is the problem: hgsvn is really not up to scratch right now. I tried to pull some stuff from SVN at one project and it immediately errored out. git-svn on the other hand works like a charm. It seems that right now I have to use git, unless someone has a good solution for getting Mercurial really working with SVN. (Also, the fact that hgsvn is pull-only is a bit problematic.)

Advice appreciated.
