On my iBook G4 1.33MHz it takes 1m10s according to time. But even
18
seconds is long enough to tempt me to go for a beer :-), compared to
git's 18 microseconds to make a branch.
Designers make choices, and clearly Linus has chosen a design that
allows branches to be made very quickly. But, is there some other
common operation that takes longer in git than it does in Mercurial?
I'd expect that there is.
