title: In what ways is Mercurial better/worse than TFS?
body: <p>I've just joined a new company and at the moment we're using Microsoft SourceSafe as our repository. The settings aren't ideal and it's proving to be a big pain in the neck.</p>
  
  <p>I've recently used Mercurial and thought it was amazing, so I'm advocating switching to that, but it looks like the company already has a Team Foundation Server licence and wants to use that instead.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone give me a list of points where one is better than the other? I've not used TFS and so I don't know what it's good/bad at.</p>
