Hi, Just another point of information, when you make your decision: I work at a company where we frequently use Haskell and we use git for almost all of our projects (other VCSs that we use are mercurial and svn). Also, I use git for all of my open source projects and I find that it works very well. Darcs is a fine VCS (although I've had problems with it in the past) but you should not feel that you have to choose it so that you are considered a "real Haskeller" :-) Good luck, and welcome to the community! -Iavor
