Yep, fairly easy to learn the basics.  There are a ton of advanced
things you can do with it, too.  Highly recommended for small to
mid-size projects.  Any text-based files that you want to store will
work fine.  Binaries work fine, too, but you won't get the space
reduction since it will have to store pretty much the whole file each
time you change it, instead of just the text differences.

I've learned a lot of "Git" lately which is used in kernel development
and for Wine.  It's proably overkill for small stuff, but it is really
nice for large projects.  Pretty steep learning curve, though.
