If Git would be overkill here, what would you propose as an alternative? I use Git on every project I work on, whether I'm the only one working on it or not, and it's saved my bacon more times than I can count!

Have you tried Darcs? It is perfect for small projects - and it won't cause problems when you try to merge multiple incompatible features.

I have! I used to use it primarily a long time ago, but then I switched to using Git for my personal stuff when my job converted their repositories to Git - easier to keep one tool in my head! I still miss Darcs' UI - best VCS UI I've ever used.

You should try again! :-)

Not everything is a nail just because you have a hammer.
