Hello,

I would vote for Subversion, mostly because we use that here where I work.
We've been using Subversion for about 3 years now and it has been reliable,
once you understand how it operates.  Keep in mind we only have a handful of
engineers using it so it's easy to avoid conflicts, and therefore I'm not
sure how well it would perform on a larger/global scale.

Best Regards,
Jerry

Hello all,

Sofia SIP project has been using Darcs version control system now for a few
years. I've personally quite fond of Darcs. While Darcs is very intuitive
and easy to use. When Darcs works it really shines. However its conflict
handling has never matured enough to allow real distrubuted development and
parallel development branches. It seems to me that I've spent more time
trying to merge branches with Darcs than actually doing some useful work
with Sofia SIP for couple of last years. I've learned some Haskell in the
process, but otherwise it has been quite frustrating.

Main reason for us to select Darcs over its competitors was the fact that
the Telepathy project used Darcs at that time, too. They have converted over
their repositories to Git nowadays, however.

So, we're now planning to switch over to another distributed version control
system after next stable release. Nokia has servers supporting Git and
Mercurial, so they are the main contenders. I've some experience on using
Git, which is currently my main reason to continue using Darcs.

However, I'd like to hear your opinion on the matter. Do you have any
preferences on DVCS?
