Speaking with my common-lisp.net admin hat on, I'm happy to install either git, hg or both. In fact, they'd probably be good to have in any case.
With my usual hat on (the one with funny ears), I'm wondering "why not darcs?". Did darcs lose out in the DVCS "wars" because they haven't managed to fix the "exponential time" bug?
I think the more serious Darcs' problem is the dependence on Haskell/GHC, which is a much more exotic requirement than Python.
