The five of us who built this spend a lot of time reviewing code each day and thought it should be less depressing and more fun. Let us know if you have improvement ideas, or even better, pull requests on Github. Thanks, and enjoy!

It looks great! Most of these features like the added context in diffs, inline code snippets and request review seem like very good candidates for features to merged into GitHub.

Looks good. Any plans for mercurial?

We don't have immediate plans for other VCSs.

None of the people who built Barkeep use other VCSs on a regular basis, and we initially built it around our own needs.

Right now our code is tightly tied to grit (https://github.com/mojombo/grit/). We plan on moving off of grit at some point (perhaps to libgit2/rugged), and that would be a good time to abstract our VCS layer, opening up the possibility for use with other systems besides git.

+1 for mercurial support
