Does it really need those sharp edges? Does it need to be made of steel? I know, I should have known better by now, but... There is this other toothbrush (called "Mercurial") that is made of plastic and has round edges, and according to my dentist, does the job perfectly unless you are among 0.5% of population with REALLY large teeth. But the local shops (GitHub) don't sell it and I have to drive to the other part of town to some obscure shops to get it (BitBucket)...

Facebook uses Mercurial with a REALLY large monorepo with some extensions[0]. Google also has some usage of Mercurial.

I know a lot of people who use hg with github; I don't personally so I'm not sure how it's setup.
