But maybe my unease with these systems is that they seem more file-

darcs (<http://abridgegame.org/darcs/>) claims to be patch-based.
darcs is in fact my personal version control system of choice at the
moment:
1) It is patch-based, rather than file-version based; you can apply
patches in a different order than they were created
2) It is distributed: Each repository is the same kind of repository,
any one of them can be a 'Master' if you wish. This was useful when I
worked on a small project and first
just worked locally on my home Mac (using darcs for local version
control), but then started working from an alternate location as well
and simply installed darcs on a server that I could access from both
locations, did a 'darcs put' from my home machine, and from then on
just used the server as a 'main repository'.
3) It's written in a functional programming language, Haskell.
Functional programming is fun!
