After using darcs, I can never see Git as elegant, no matter how clearly it is a more pragmatic choice these days.

I agree. I’m always embarrassed to say that I still use darcs but it’s just entirely obvious how to use it. There is no mystery. The choice to prompt the user for thing makes usability insanely high.

Yes it’s slow for large projects but honestly I just deal with that.

Have you looked at Pijul? I understand it has resolved the major shortcomings of Darcs.
