Maybe it's time to select one VCS and stick with it. The current dual
CVS/darcs model is far from optimal.
I'd say the main options are:
1) subversion at sf.net
- sf.net provides automatic import of the CVS tree
- plusses: widely used, allows pulls/commits over HTTP
- minuses: centralized model, development stops if sf.net
goes down
2) use the darcs trees as master repos, drop CVS
- plusses: distributed development, easy anon access,
various nice features of darcs
- minuses: hosting (how to provide ultra-reliable hosting
for the repo?), scalability (what if the repo grows too
big for darcs?), managing developer access (we'll have
to do this manually), no pushes over HTTP
I think these are really the main options. Adding yet another VCS (git,
mercurial/hg, bazaar-ng, etc) doesn't bring much to the table. They don't
really bring new benefits compared to (2), and suffer from much of the
same downsides.
Btw; some good blog posts comparing the alternatives:
