Not really, lots of folks were using mercurial with BitBucket which didn't support Git at the time. Bazaar and Launchpad were also pretty common. I remember at one point around 2009-2010 I was semi-regularly using CVS, Subversion, Mercurial, Bazaar and Git.
lots of people were using lots of things at that time, most were using git.
You have no evidence to back this claim up, because it’s not true.
