Never used 'em, but I trust the people I listen to. I still use Subversion because it

works well enough for me, but Mercurial and Git are distributed version control

systems, which means they make it much more convenient to collaborate with others.

We still use Subversion for Dabo, but at some point when it makes sense to do so I'll

move it forward to Git or Mercurial.
