One little tidbit that seemed to be missing from this thread is that Martin Pool commented quite frequently in favourable terms about Darcs, and last I talked to him was indeed planning to incorporate some of its more innovative features. At the moment, Darcs comes closest to supporting the workflow that I need, and is certainly blazingly easy to use. Given Martin's objective (influenced by Havoc's writing on the subject) of coming up with a tool that supports modern global open source project workflows, [ie needs an authoritative centralized main line, needs sensible branches BUT ALSO needs to support very disconnected operation, and casual patch generation & submission], I have a suspicion that bzr will end up rocking the house. If indeed it does a better job of supporting a realistic model of open source development workflow, then at some point it may well be compelling to move there. <shrug>, We'll see. In the mean time, we have a mature, usable tool in Darcs. All good.
