I think you'll find all the current DSCMs have converged to a similar
core set of commands. Commit/diff/log are in the same place as anyone
would expect. The main difference from the svn/cvs world is the
push/pull pair. The only really new thing that git brings to bear is
that we have an index and our doco is slightly more jargon-laden (but
several of the intros that abound 'round the net are fantastic).

In any case, have safe travels. A lot of people have found Hg to be
almost the same but simpler, and a good part of them have later come
back to git. Others have had a similar experience with BazaarNG.
Things are far from settled.

DSCMs have mostly sane storage models, so it's possible to write
lossless importers/exporters. So you can transform your git repos into
hg, and do the reverse trip if/when you want to try git again.

enjoy,
