Some other big projects are also using hg. Both, git and hg should easily handle SLIME. I would prefer hg, but the main question is: should we switch at all?
No. These days it appears that cvs is becoming the least common denominator from which people mirror git or $DVCSOFWEEK. Folks who want to use a distributed version control system can set up mirroring from cvs upstream. For the rest of us it's just one less package to install on N different computers where I have SLIME checked out. In fact it'd probably be even better if actual development took place off the mirror and got pushed to CVS HEAD when it worked reliably.
what he said. this is effectively today's SBCL situation, BTW, and it Seems To Work Just Fine.
