Really? I was under the impression that Bazaar and Mercurial both beat
git, and I know they both beat Arch easily in terms of popularity.
Launchpad mostly runs Bazaar, and they've gained some widespread usage
now. Of course, it's always going to impossible to guage what SCMs
proprietary projects use, but I'm positive those are all mostly on
centralized systems, I don't think they really apply to the
distributed category. I do look forward to seeing what comes of
git-cheetah. It has the possibility of turning the distributed SCM
world upside down, though it'll be some time before that happens
regardless of how good the developers are on the project.
Anyway, like 90% of everyone here, I'd also recommend SVN for this
despite the fact that Mike hasn't given much detail on what he needs.
