It's not like $20k is a lot to Microsoft.

It's more than the $0 it's given git.
Actually, MS has contributed significantly more than $20k worth of developer time to git / libgit2 over the past months, all open source GPL code
This only makes the $20K to Mercurial seem weirder, don't you think? It underscores my point that it's hard for large organizations to keep their official positions on things straight.
