I'll say that once you go DVCS (Distributed VCS) you'll never go back. There is so much crazy stuff I do now that I wouldn't even think about doing with something like SVN or *shutter* CVS. > For the curious about version control, especially distributed version > control, I found > http://versioncontrolblog.com/comparison/Arch/Bazaar/Darcs/Mercurial/Monotone/index.html > to be interesting. That is interesting, but I'd really say that there are only about two DVCSes left. The others are being developed, but their communities are shrinking. The two are Bazaar and Git. Personally I find Bazaar easier to use with more tools, but Git has more big projects using it (Linux Kernel, X, fd.o, etc.) Personally, I think that's more for legacy reasons than technical ones, YMMV. Full disclosure: I work for Canonical, and we sponsor the development of Bazaar. But, I use it for my hobby projects also. --Ted
