Not sure what you're implying about mononoke but the readme says:

> The version that we provide on GitHub does not build yet.

So, maybe eventually. They found that Git didn't do well at their scale, so they modified mercurial instead.

I'm all in favor of a company-wide mono-repo if it doesn't have scaling issues.

Most of monorepo tools for Mercurial are upstreamed already and are available in a standard Mercurial install.

I don't think anyone in this thread is CTO of a company size of Facebook. For a medium size company, you can easily use Mercurial or Perforce.
