One of the things I like about git is that it is easy and fast to set up a local repository. You have a small script and decide it would be nice to try a couple of things. Then just run git init and you have your local version control in your script directory. If you later want to collaborate, it's easy to clone the repository wherever you want. If you add the script to your one big SVN repository, it's there forever.
I mean, for small things and finished projects, how often do you really need the version history? In git it's just this .git folder in your project directory. I didn't experience an administration overhead since my switch.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
