Hello, Currently, the coreutils package uses CVS for version control. However, I am shifting coreutils development to git -- or maybe even mercurial. Will savannah support git or mercurial soon? I would also consider using monotone.
FYI, I can already convert my coreutils module (with 15 years of CVS history) into a git or mercurial repository, preserving branches, history, etc. There are several advantages to using a distributed version control system -- I doubt it'll help if I list them here. However, that said, I did do an informal survey and some experiments with git, mercurial, monotone, and svk, and finally settled on git for coreutils. But I do use mercurial, too, and find it quite usable, featureful and well-maintained.
