I myself prefer Mercurial's UI to git, but have reached the same rueful
conclusion. One major point in git's favor is the fast-import stream
format - without it, reposurgeon would never have come to be and the
groff conversion would have been *considerably* more difficult.
You say you're happy with bzr's UI. Does it not seem to you that bzr is
deeply confused about what its unit of work is? I tried learning bzr
in order to work on Emacs and found that the distinction between repos
and detached branches made my head hurt a lot.
