Don't discount git just because the Eclipse plugin is not good or you could not get it to work. You may find a different tool that suits you better. I use CVS and Eclipse every day at work, yet I always use Emacs for CVS, I find it so much more convenient that the Eclipse integration. For example, check out Magit, there is a very nice screencast demonstrating it at http://alexvollmer.com/index.php/2009/01/18/meet-magit/. There are other videos about git, I recommend the ones from Linus Torvalds and Randal Schwartz.
