I more like hands-on approach that does use real world workflow
instead of academic examples. For example, tutorial like Ondrej Certik
made for SymPy patches using Mercurial queues.
http://docs.sympy.org/sympy-patches-tutorial.html  It goes straight
from the problem in SymPy development you'd like to resolve for
yourself and then shows how Mercurial helps with it. If you have more
time to dig - you may read a book or Joel series.
