### Why Use Mercurial

### Why use Mercurial?
|
||||
|
||||
* Distributed Architecture - Traditionally version control systems such as CVS
|
||||
and Subversion are a client server architecture with a central server to
|
||||
store the revsion history of a project. Mercurial however is a truly
|
||||
distributed architecture, giving each devloper a full local copy of the
|
||||
entire development history. It works independently of a central server.

||||
each devloper a full local copy of the entire development history. It works
|
||||
independently of a central server.
|
||||
|
||||
* Platform Independent - Mercurial was written to be highly platform
|
||||
independent. Much of Mercurial is written in Python, with small performance
|
||||
critical parts written in portable C. Binary releases are available for all
|
||||
major platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
* Extensible - The functionality of Mercurial can be increased with extensions,
|
||||
either by activating the official ones which are shipped with Mercurial or
|
||||
downloading some [from the
|
||||
wiki](https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/UsingExtensions) or by [writing your
|
||||
own](https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/WritingExtensions). Extensions are
|
||||
written in Python and can change the workings of the basic commands, add new
|
||||
commands and access all the core functions of Mercurial.

|

* Easy to use - The Mercurial command set is consistent with what subversion
|
||||
users would expect, so they are likely to feel right at home. Most dangerous
|
||||
actions are part of extensions that need to be enabled to be used.
|
