Also might be worthy to mention Jujitsu [0], a vcs out of Google with a git-compatible backend and more ergonomic interface [1].

I am personally surprised that TFA didn't mention either jj or Sapling [0] given its emphasis on how both Git and svn were both made to be backwards compatible!

Not the same category of tools: Pijul and Fossil have radically different designs, whereas jj is a Git frontend, and Sapling a Mercurial fork.
