I know. I need a personal github.

git is free, and is usually installed on individual machines.  It's also easy 
to set up and use for a single user.

I prefer Mercurial (also known as hg). The Python core developers use it for 
compiler development, and in my opinion, hg is easier to use than git. 
(Although, in fairness, they're both pretty easy.) hg is cleaner than git, 
being written in Python, while git is an unholy mess of C, Perl and bash that 
will suck your brain out if you try to understand it, unless you are Linus 
Torvalds. And there are some awesome hg tutorials out there:

(I trust that everyone remembers enough high school chemistry to understand why 
Mercurial is called hg? Hg is the chemical symbol for Mercury.)
