Locking ?!

I'm using it also for very small (one-man) projects, since it eg.
supports important concepts like _sane_ (*1) branching and rebasing,
interfacing to lots of other VCS'es, easy synchronization, etc, etc.

Actually, I dont see any technical reason to use anything else.

It's an technical, not an religious issue. SVN simply supports only
very basic things and is very slow - limits by the underlying data
model (which already was obsoleted somewhere in the last century).
