Long ago I used Clearcase, and was not happy.

Recently I used Subversion (and its friend the tortoise). Bill is correct.

Subversion seems to have the right level of frills, and if one is just a 
teensy bit careful it does not get in the way of Getting Things Done. 
IIRC it lacks fancy locking schemes.

Fancy locking schemes require even fancier unlocking tricks for getting
