Umm, let's not.

If they hate it, they'll be in the "unhappy" category. And if they hate it, I doubt they'll be filling out this survey.

I've heard nothing but unhelpful, uneducated, and stubborn words from people who "hate git". They usually have nothing productive to say and spend their time complaining about really petty things like the fact that they have to paste in a SHA-1 every now and then. Worse still, they almost never have constructive criticism and thus will always be upset.

Personally, I couldn't care less to hear what they have to say. The only thing worse then the haters are the ones who actually believe that they would hate hg less (even when they've never tried hg!).

Let's not encourage them by including including "I hate git" in our survey.

No thanks.
