Sebastien: See my remark to Yury. Mercurial *actively* annotates your
commits with information about what branch you were on when you made
the commit. Git users can, of course, add this information, they just
have to do it manually.

Ronny: As I said, it's *really easy* to construct git commits which,
when translated, come out on a named branch.
