That plus poorer integration with popular IDEs/editors such as Eclipse.

In fact popular IDEs / editors back then supported CVS, then SVN and pretty much nothing else.

You'd be amazed (or not) how little technical superiority matters. Developers just want to click stuff and get back to developing.

Which is not to denigrate git, which I love so much it hurts.
