Hi I don't usually chip into these mailing list conversations but today I'll make an exception. This looks like it is just going to turn into an argument of personal preference and opinion - surely you should be choosing the VCS that is most accessible... you want people to use/contribute to ioquake3 then choose something easy to use. Don't alienate users by using something obscure.
Also, Windows has excellent git support: http://code.google.com/p/gitextensions/ (I use this on a daily basis, plugs right into Visual Studio if you want it to).
