Well, Jason gave me a bit of a challenge on his Twitter, and so that got me to doing something I'd meant to do for a while.

I've wanted to mess around with the new Python bindings, and so I booted up Leopard and settled in with XCode. My goal was to duplicate a demonstration of Scripting Bridge that Wolf had done at PSIG, except in Python.

Thanks to Dave Dribin, and his analysis of git vs. Mercurial, I decided to give Mercurial a try.

It turns out I rather like it! I'd been keeping a lot of my work in Subversion, which is a pretty good centralized source code management system, but the usual way of using it seemed so heavy: branches and tags and all kinds of operations took big URLs.
