I agree with the point!

Which is why I use Subversion.

Have you tried Git or Hg?

I think the point is that Git and Hg are extremely close in features/power/etc., not that every SCM is equal.

Not trying to troll here; if you really prefer SVN over Git or Hg that's your preference. But if you haven't given them a chance, you'll do yourself a favor by trying one of them out.

Yes I have tried both, extensively. I use windows primarily, which pretty much eliminates Git. Git's architecture is a big turd as well. Mercurial is the closest contender but it's not there yet with tool support.
