Source code management
Does anyone here use any SCMs, and if so, what one(s) are your favourite(s)? What would you recommend and why?
I want to try to learn to use one (probably SVN or Git) but I don't know much about them.

If you want to have to learn an SCM to use it, go with Git. There isn't much to learn about Subversion.

subversion is definitely convenient.
I somewhat wish there was more of a standard to source management though so I don't have to argue with myself about what to do.

+1 SVN
I recently read (skimmed) an article about using SVN and Mercurial together but like a fool I forgot where I read it. It was going on about using SVN to keep in sync with with a server and using Mercurial locally to make quick copies of projects, has anyone else seen this article?

Actually, I'm looking for something like that. I'd like to keep a local repository so that I don't have to contact the remote server through the VM (TortoiseSVN is a pain to have installed), and I'd like it to update automatically; I know that if I have to manually check things in, I'll never do it. Is it anything like that?
I used to use FileHamster, but it was more of a backup manager than a version control, and it wasn't that good at that, either.
