David I've never used Git, so I can't comment on that one, but I've used 
CVS and SVN extensively over the years.  It took me just a short while 
to get my head around the Mercurial way to do things (which is probably 
very similar to Git). 

It's dead-easy to install and configure and to start a new repository.  
I really like the mindset of committing your changes before pulling and 
merging stuff from other developer's, as opposed to updating from a 
central repository first, merging/fixing conflicts, then committing. 

I like the flexibility of how you can publish changes.  You can use the 
built-in web server to browse and pull changes.  You can email changes.  
You can grab them via SSH, etc.  Very nice.  The command line interface 
is very simple and the built-in help is great.

Performance is very fast and there is no problem at all with binary 
files, even large ones.

There is a youtube video here: 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JExtkqzEoHY from one of the lead 
developer's that is interesting.
