Git versus Mercurial for .NET developers?

Question

I\'ve been wondering what is the better DVCS for .NET developers? From reading various information it has sounded like Mercurial works better on Windows, but other information

Answer 1

At the time of writing, I've used both TortoiseGit and TortoiseHg (for mercurial) in different projects, dominantly java and .net projects. I have to say that TortoiseHg is in the lead as it is much more stable and fully featured of the two.

There is a Mercurial plugin for Visual Studio 2008, but I'd suggest sticking with TortoiseHg until the plugin itself is stable. Not sure about integration with git, but there is some talk about a plugin for VS here.
