Re: Mercurial "r####" numbers are not stable, use commit ids

In contrast Hg's revision id can't be stable on a global

being low increasing integers they can't use probabilities to
compensate for the lack of information.
The revision number is just a local shorthand for revision id, which is
a hash similar to git, and it's globally unique. I agree it can be
confusing if used to communicate with others, but they're also handy for
local operation.
