Erm, no offense intended, but »lots« seems to be pretty much everything
above a single one for me – as soon as you'll use Mercurial like an
actual DVCS, revision numbers will inevitably differ among the various
repository clones.
For a small D-related example, just compare the revision numbers in the
main Bitbucket repo and Alexey's personal one – and guess what you'll
see. And unfortunately, LDC isn't quite »huge«.
I was skeptical about not having revision numbers available back when I
started to use Git as well, but I still have to encounter a single
situation in my workflow where I wouldn't have to look up the SVN rev
referring to a particular commit (when I have to search through the logs
anyway, I don't care about whether I have to use the hash or a SVN-style
rev anyway), but still couldn't use some relative notation, possibly in
combination with local branches/tags…
