 \begin{frame}{Git}
-  Like Mercurial, Git was created in 2005:
+  Git was created by Linus Torvalds for Linux Kernel development:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item very fast tool, slightly faster than Mercurial
+  \item builds on the same concepts as Mercurial:
+    \begin{itemize}
+    \item fully distributed with push/pull between machines
+    \item commits are organized in a changeset graph
+    \end{itemize}
+  \end{itemize}
+
+  \pause
+  Git is extremely flexible, but flexibility comes at a price:
   \begin{itemize}
-  \item built on the same concepts as Mercurial
+  \item \cmd{git log} has \alert{150} different flags, log help text is
+    1496 lines
+  \item default command set includes destructive commands
+  \item steep learning curve --- must learn about the ``staging area''
+  \end{itemize}
+
+  \pause
+  Git is still somewhat Linux-centric:
+  \begin{itemize}
+  \item started as a tool for Linux Kernel hackers, made by Linux
+    Kernel hackers
+  \item Git has since then been ported to Windows
+  \item Windows performance is still reported to be sub-par
   \end{itemize}
