I'm sorry, it's hard to say anything good about a project that brings nothing new to the table while desperately trying to replace a well-established industry standard. Such attempts look annoying at best and irritating at most. At the very least the person behind the project could have been more humble in pushing it, and instead of presenting it as a "git killer" causing everyone only headache he could have had 1) polished it 2) pointed out precisely what "problems" with git his project solves. None of those were clearly stated; instead, the shared page is simply a shameless plug for wasting everyone's time.
Okay, next time I'm simply going to ignore it, but allowing this kind of posting only works against the HN. I'm not sure if you've noticed, but even the original post title was annoying enough that someone from the moderators had to replace it.
