You can really tell this is our first time with a CVS system. I am very interested in hearing about all the types of CVS-type systems out there and their pros and cons for a web environment. Or even just better ways to lay it out.

We're looking into possibly moving to something besides CVS for our version control. One we are looking into is GNU Arch. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be as well documented, and it seems it might be a bit immature at this point. It does seem to have some cool features though. Is anyone here using it, and if so, what are your thoughts?
I wouldn't say immature. It needs polishing, UI, etc. but its design is the best I've seen so far of the open source batch. And it works well, very well.
subversion is a pile of hacks. It is made to work, but just enough so that people used to CVS can feel warm and cozy. It does very well at that, hence the number of old CVS front-ends that have been made to work with svn.
You might want to look at Bazaar, a version of GNU arch focused on
improving arch's UI, usability and front-end-ability. It was created and maintained by the Canonical (Ubuntu) folks, and will remain as compatible as possible with regular gnu arch.
