On the topic of VCS I recently took a look at monotone (http://monotone.ca/). It was easy to install and follow the tutorial and I am thinking of trying it out on my own Chicken project. I liked the way it uses sqlite for the repository. I am curious to see if anyone has had some experience with it and what they thought?
