Why not use Mercurial instead?

I've never really used it, and I've never been in a position to choose source control for a team.

That said, I think it's kind of a VHS-vs.-Betamax question. You have two very similar technologies, and the slightly inferior option has won out simply because someone influential selected it. For VHS I think it was Sony, or maybe porn-peddlers. For Git it's Linux.
