How Microsoft Office Moved from Source Depot to Git

I've used CVS, SVN, TFS, Mercurial, and Git in the past, so I have plenty of exposure to different options. I have to deal with Perforce in my current workplace and I have to say that even from this perspective it's honestly pretty bad in terms of how convoluted things are.

I don't disagree at all--p4 was kick-ass back in the day but the world, and our expectations, have moved on. Plus, they went all high-street enterprisey.

What makes it convoluted? Where did it lose the beat?
