Mercurial and Git started around the same time. Linus worried BitMover could threaten Mercurial developers because Mercurial and BitKeeper were more similar.
When I tried both at that time hg was just really slow so I just adopted git for all my personal projects because it was fast and a lot better than cvs. I imagine others were the same.
