Gosh, I know. That's awful. Its much better that hg allows people to type hg mv, rather than forcing lazy people to modify the .bashrc file so that they can type "ga" instead of "git add".

I mean, I know "hg mv" is actually longer than "ga", but by golly, expecting unix shell users to know about the alias system built into the operating system is just the kind of elitism we can expect from linus.

I hate to burst your bubble, but git has alias support. http://githowto.com/aliases
