some of them prefer Mercurial.
One concern that they are raising is that in Git there doesn't seem to
be an easy way to find out on which branch a given commit was originally
made, after the branch is merged back and deleted. They consider this a
show-stopper. In Mercurial, branch information is meta data attached to
each commit, so you can easily get this information even after a branch
is closed.
Use an issue tracker? Associate the commits with ticket numbers in the
commit msg.
git commit -m "Blah Blah Blah (refs #someticket)"
