How much have you worked with Subversion so far?  I am doing 
quite a bit of work with it, and the 
do-everything-via-copying paradigm does not get in my hair.  
It actually means that I have to remember fewer commands.
And it is pretty easy to understand.

Does it not bother you that renaming a file is a copy + delete [1].
Have they fixed that yet?  That was one of the biggest reasons we never
moved to subversion.

Never bit me.
