That's generally been my reaction to life with Mercurial.  At first, I
was pleasantly surprised by how painless most things are.  I was never
suspicious that things were too easy, which might mean I didn't have
my skeptic filters cranked up high enough.  Oops.  At this point, I'm
just used to Mercurial's no-fluff command-line UI and increasingly
mystified at Subversion's and git's UI choices.  (And no comment on
CVS; its only excuse is age.  Subversion and git do not have that
excuse.)
