I don't do mint development but in my job I have used 6-7 different version control apps over 25 years of development. Some of them were awful and some of them made work easier. Some of the teams in my office have used 3 vcs in 4 years and now have started using git. Sometimes it feels like change for change sake but I can't comment on git because I haven't used it. I'm currently using Tortoise SVN. SVN from the command line would probably be as bad as cvs but it's the nice Tortoise shell and it's integration into the desktop that makes it easy to work with. I started work on a simple GEM shell for cvs which I genericised into a shell for any command line tool using windom. I ran into difficulty trying to get a filename input field working and stopped working on it for other reasons. I do use it for samba.
