Mercurial is available on different platforms like Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris and others. Distributed architecture -Traditional version control systems such as CVS are typical client-server architectures with a central point to store the revisions of a project.

In contrast, Mercurial is truly distributed, giving each developer a local copy of the entire development history. Fast Mercurials implementation and data structures are designed to be fast. You can generate diffs between revisions, or jump back in time within seconds. Therefore Mercurial is perfectly suiteable for large projects such as OpenJDK or NetBeans.
