I cannot speak for or against Darcs (since I haven't used it), but I can say that Subversion is my preferred version control system:
along with a third party tool svk:
which make mirroring multiple remote projects very easy as well as vastly simplifying branch management and merging. It is also possible to use VCP (an opensource tool from the Perforce people) to copy from one version control system to another (and often back again). I use this to mirror a remote CVS repository (or three) using svk; it could also be used to create a readonly CVS mirror of a Subversion repository. The Subversion project cvs2svn also does a very nice job of converting full cvs history into a Subversion database (branches and tags).
i vote for svn aswell. timo should know why. =) and i think the conversion of irssi to svn worked so nicely.
