Git is a great piece of software. I use it daily for work and personal
projects. But I've found that Mercurial with the Queues extension does
a much smoother job handling the standard open source workflow of
create code, generate patch, email patch, edit code, update patch,
email patch again. The problem is that git commits are immutable, so
you can't easily edit a patch. Mercurial's Mq extension solves this by
providing a mechanism for removing and editing commits.
