I need something to handle versioning on some local personal stuff. I just want it to run on my own box and have no plans to ever share any of the code via a repository. I’m using a Mac. Any opinions out there Internet? I’m comfortable with svn and that would be my default answer. But I’m thinking about using git just to try it out. Since I’m only using it local, I’m aware of hacking off perhaps the biggest advantage of using git at all (the *distributed* part). But I’m hoping the advantage in branch/merge still makes it worthwhile.

Anything else I should put on the short list?
