My personal preference is svn+svk.. so everybody is happy: those who
want centralized can use svn directly, and those who want
decentralized (like me) can use svk.
svk can get pretty slow once the number of commits becomes large. :(
I hear you, there is a project I use svk for, and with 100k commits now
in the backend, its becoming a pain.
I haven't worked with git or mtn or bazaar, so can't really compare.
while most people would get major wins from svk, you cant really replace
git or bazaar with it. For one, svk wont let you do local repo
management like git does and wont let you do repo forking etc that is
pretty much the central point of git/bazaar.
Having said that - I think mercurial is the best distributed system out
there at the moment. The best bang-for-the-buck if you will.
