SourceForge still uses CVS, as do many other development places. There
are other revision control packages, but until you mentioned it, I had
never heard of Mercurial. Of course I am an "Old Fart", so that may
mean something to put it in context.

SF also uses Subversion:
https://sourceforge.net/docs/E09
I prefer SVN, only because when I started learning a VCS (both as a user
and admin) I chose SVN because it was new and a lot of people on the
intarwebs were talking about it. I like some of the features it has
over CVS, but CVS is still quite adequate and fairly flexible.
