Darcs is a source control system written in Haskell (a functional language), and feature very solid mathematics bases, being completely engeneered on top of a "patch theory". Not only darcs is straightforward and very easy to you, not only it's very interactive and minimizes the chances of mistakes, but it also gives out features that the popular SVN doesn't have.

I've been using darcs for my main project for a while, and it's saved me through its robustness when I've done some exceedingly stupid things to it.

The article does not support its claim: "it also gives out features that the popular SVN doesn't have."

darcs may be a good tool. I've not used it. I've used sccs, rcs, cvs and svn (version control tools of the past :-). After reading this article, I do not believe that darcs is the tool of the future. What is new?
