I use hg for even 50-line standalone python scripts. It's very well suited to these small environments, and scales up nicely.


cd /my/working/dir
hg init
hg add myscript.py
hg ci -m 'added myscript'

It's that simple, and now hyou can go back if you make a terrible mistake, and you can post it to bitbucket and share with the world if you like, almost as easily.
