Manual transmission (hills)

So I saw a question in the forums about riding the clutch, and it got me wondering about what method you guys use stopped on inclines. Personally I haven't encountered a hill yet in which I've needed to use the ebrake, so I use the clutch to hold the car in place. However, I do know in some countries like the UK, that it is part of some of the driver's test to use the ebrake on hills to prevent any rollback whatsoever, and many keep that habit for life. So what method do you guys use?
