When I was using it, it was much less convenient than stgit - required
to forge a git-am command-line to continue after a conflict
(--continue was added in April '06 - I had switched to StGIT before
implementing it myself ;).  My evaluation at that point was that it
required too much understanding of the plumbing issues to be shown to
a newbie - a problem which StGIT does not have.  But I have not used
it any more since then, and did not follow any improvements in this
field.

StGIT features like "push --undo" also make it much easier to delay
merge of a given patch, and stack handling makes it easier to continue
your work after a night-break.  Not to mention all goodies like patch
reordering.
