An interesting one called monotone
<http://www.venge.net/monotone/>
more "distributed" than others; treats the project as a whole, including
directories (so you can rename without problems)

And here's a comparison page for quite a few version control systems,
including subversion, arch and monotone:

Probably a good idea to look at this, because I think there is probably
no one "best" system, but that some systems fit some styles of project
better than others, and you'll need to consider what features you really
need before you choose which system to use.
