I agree as well. I gave up on SVN after having been bitten one too

keeping my org-mode files in sync, for the central repository model, I
find that mercurial works better in that it's simpler to use.
However, mercurial and git are pretty much the same in this regard.
[*] Despite using mercurial for almost everything else, I use git and
not mercurial for org-mode as mercurial is not available on my maemo
Internet tablet....
