In your circumstances I would go with SVN for two reasons: One thing to note however, is that if you start with cvs, there is a script which allows you to convert to svn. To the best of my knowledge, there is not an automated way of going from svn to cvs.

From the command line, I have found cvs to be limiting, but fairly straight forward to use whereas svn can be a royal pain.

Both have supporting modules in at least perl and java and integrate via plugins with Eclipse and a couple of other IDE's.

I keep track of my stuff in cvs because it is all that I need, and my situation is similar to yours. Good luck in your decision :-)

...the majority is always wrong, and always the last to know about it...
