It's a little surprising to me that these companies use Git at all. What's the appeal of Git really? Is it just the "familiarity factor", and is that really a reason to pour so many resources into it?
I think almost all the people they hire nowadays would be familiar with git and not something else. So it would be a lot of time savings in training if you switch to git instead of training every newbie to your own peculiar source control mechanism.
Sure, but the CLI is the CLI. I can't imagine there's no way to replicate the Git CLI without rewriting the internals. Surely the basics of branch-and-merge will be the same, right? I doubt anyone would miss the dangerously overloaded `checkout` subcommand, or wrestling with rebase conflicts.
