Opening eyes does not necessary mean seeing it. Kaboom, bent metal in the front and I can only blame myself. Expensive driving lesson, fortunately the engine etc. pp. is all fine and nobody harmed.

One house, three rooms, four Mac power adapters. Pretty nuts, but actually quite useful.

For quite a while I am using now Bazaar for most of my personal projects which are not supposed to go on Google Code or Sourceforge. First you need to get used to the nature of a distributed VCS but it comes in quite handy. One of the main reasons I choose bzr is that it doesn't rely on a proprietary server like Hg or Git. My ISP supports SFTP with quite a decent user control. As mostly a one man-show for these projects control over where and what goes in is simple. And if a branch diverted because you might have forgotten to check in something the merging is not a nightmare like with Subversion. So if you need a quick solution for version control give bzr a shot, it is free and it is working on any conceivable platform supporting Python.
