I not sure what constitues a "real" project, but I have found Darcs to be more than satisfactory for Ben Lippmeier's DDC compiler project. Thats 50k lines of Haskell code with a commit history of 2500+ commits. I also do use other VCSs, in order of frequency Bzr, SVN, Git Darcs and Hg. However, my order of preference is Bzr, Darcs, Hg, Git and then SVN. The only reason I slight prefer Bzr over Darcs is that Bzr has a slightly easier and more intuitive (at least for me) user interface. However, I do find Bzr (written in Python) slightly fragile in that I ocassionally get a huge Python backtrace when something blows up Erik -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Erik de Castro Lopo http://www.mega-nerd.com/ _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
