I've used cvs and svn fairly extensively. I'm not completely comfortable with the way branches are done in svn, but I can't find anything other than "it's not what I'm used to from cvs" as a reason for the discomfort. I've looked at darcs quite a bit, and it theoretically looks like it has a real advantage in merging disparate work (ie, stuff that would create conflicts in other software may not do so in darcs). It isn't designed as a client-server type of application, though you can make web and procmail hacks to simulate such a thing. That lack of centralization is a kinda scary proposal for the projects I generally work on. :)

CVS, Subversion, darcs, or GNU Arch?
