Mentions according to http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ruby/:

Git:           165
Mercurial:   86
Darcs:      207
Bazaar:      51 (most mentions seem unrelated to the DVCS; "bzr" only
has 5 hits)

So Git is second only to Darcs in mentions over the lifetime of
ruby-talk.  There is no way to constrain Google group search to a
subset of dates (that I can find), so I can't give data on which has
the most buzz recently; but I've certainly noticed more mentions of
git than of darcs lately.
