Apologies for responding to my own post, but I forgot to say that I use svn for all new software, and will be pulling all my cvs controlled software into svn at soem point. That is to say that my minor discomfort is nothing compared to the additional capabilities provided by subversion.

I've used cvs and svn fairly extensively. I'm not completely comfortable with the way branches are done in svn, but I can't find anything other than "it's not what I'm used to from cvs" as a reason for the discomfort. I've looked at darcs quite a bit, and it theoretically looks like it has a real advantage in merging disparate work (ie, stuff that would create conflicts in other software may not do so in darcs). It isn't designed as a client-server type of application, though you can make web and procmail hacks to simulate such a thing. That lack of centralization is a kinda scary proposal for the projects I generally work on. :)

CVS, Subversion, darcs, or GNU Arch?
