My summary would be that
1. Git's ui is bad
2. There is the crappy index thingie
3.  I don't see how git branches are better than hg bookmarks (again, the
ui is bad).
4. I still use multiple repos along with branches in git.
5. I am willing to bet money Satish will use multiple repos, rather than
branches.
