Ask HN: Is Sapling, the new SCM/DVCS, getting any traction in the wild?

I’m not using it, but I’m somewhat interested in it. I doubt I’ll get to it since Git is so firmly entrenched. Same goes for Pijul.
Fossil (the SQLite one) is a little more interesting to me since it seems more portable, given that it contains issues, etc. all in a single DB.

I also investigated Fossil and it's a very interesting VCS, but it seems too opinionated with its workflow though.
Never even heard of this before.
I checked it out but wasn’t able to figure out if it supported hooks like pre-commit
I find it interesting it isn't self hosted.

Never heard of it, hence, this sounds like astroturfing.
No, not astroturfing. Just hoping we could be closer to the day the git monoculture ends.
see also, https://github.com/martinvonz/jj which I really have been enjoying wrapping my head around and using. True undo, and no-stage is truly such an amazing experience compared with raw git.
Very interesting, I hope it takes off!

Have you been using it? Are companies starting migrating off git to it? Is it getting any traction? Or is it DOA? What have you been observing about it in our industry?
