I'm still a little uncertain about this. Git seems increasingly popular, and very powerful, it just doesn't seem very obvious to use for new users. SVN is great at the moment, because there's a great GUI client for windows (TortoiseSVN), and quite a good one for linux (RapidSVN). Having easy source control clients seems like an easy way to get people involved. So I'm wondering: are there any good GUI clients for git, mercurial or bazaar?

Since this supposes a lot of branching (for SoC, probably also for many large scale changes because the tree still needs to be usable during that time etc.) wouldn't it be a good time to change version control system to something that eases branching and merging?
Excellent you bring this up and thanks for the succinct summary of the discussion so far. I wholeheartedly agree that especially for the purposes of refactoring switching version control systems would prove extremely valuable.
Of the three alternatives you mentioned I also know only git so I can't make substantiated comments on which of them would be best for our purposes. But from what I've seen I guess I'd be happy with any of them (although of course I wouldn't be disappointed if it were git :)).
