A tool like unison, together with a very easy to use snapshot/restore tool (files + database) doesn't seem like a bad combination... you could keep daily incremental backups for prosperity if you so desire but really why bother with a vcs?

Hg if you are doing linux kernel size of develoment
darcs if you are doing until ffmpeg size of develoment
this is not arbitrary. hg has some plugin that on top of their normal VCS add patch based pre-revision that you can rebase them without the pain of revitions. also performance close to git.
darcs (at least 2.9.1) with their cached global repo. operation that used to be slow now aren't (example annotate) and is easy to use and understand which is a plus

I second the darcs recommendation. If you don't need to branch that often, it's a good choice.
If I'm an autistic neckbeard and I'm privately implementing Love Shack OS, is there any reason I should switch from git to hg?

For more than half of the timespan of the Linux kernel's existence it did not use any revision control whatsoever.
Now every hipster coder revision controls their fibs homework.
