Google Code has Mercurial support and an issue tracker as well. In fact Google Code has every feature GitHub has. However I think your decision was all about the overhyped Git than “the community”.

Let’s just say both are VERY good reasons to switch to DVCS :)

I started out thinking that local commits was the biggest benefit of DVCS, but since then I’ve changed my mind. Now I think the biggest benefit is easy (and quick/cheap) branches and merging. It’s a marvelous freedom to evolve a codebase in several directions at will, then switch between, discard, or fold-in those new directions without manually messing with diffs and patches.
