For a relatively simple project, where you just need source code control
(with branches,etc), how about RCS? - I've used it for the last 5 years,
even for code I've developed on my own  (I looked at CVS but, at the time,
anyway, RCS was a lot easier to use).

I believe CVS is just an interface on top of RCS which is meant to help when
you need to keep track of the binaries as well, but it takes longer to
learn...
