For versioning, I migrated my stuff from CVS to darcs.  Interesting
features (e.g. being able to commit separately changes related to
different things, disallow commits if a test suite doesn't pass, go
back to the last version where tests passed, nice way to handle e-mail
commits, automatic tracking of patches between dependencies, need only
a web server to publish a repository...), takes five minutes to set
up, and stays out of your way.  I just wish I'd done it sooner.
