I'm working with a client whose chosen Mercurial. I like being able to group relevant changes into one commit, comment it and then move on to the next commit, without interfering with the trunk.
Mercurial leaves much to be desired in the efficiency of it's copies -- it's file backed, not db backed, using copy on write for copies; whereas Subversion delta encodes everything. While cheap storage is not such a big deal for managing source code, it does matter when using version control for art assets.
