The Wine project put together a summary of the code repository options
out there a while ago and set up a table here (at the bottom of the
page):

In my opinion, git has a higher learning curve, but is well worth the
effort for large projects.  cvs has numerous drawbacks that are well
documented all over the place.  svn is quite good for small or average
size projects.  All of the options are better than nothing of course,
and all of them will probably suffice for any project, but there are
plenty of pro's and con's that you need to weigh yourself for your own
needs.

Plus, there are lots of tools out there to convert from one to
another, so whatever you pick, it's really never too late to switch to
a different one later.
