I would use whatever has been proven to work in the real world.  This
is about whether I could recommend CMake+Dart to a Perforce shop.  Any
Dart would do.

I haven't really worked with Dart.  I guess it's about time I start,
since it keeps coming up as part of my build engineering sales pitch.
Perforce is not the only revision control system I'm interested in
either.  For Chicken Scheme we use Darcs, and the Mozilla people are
using Mercurial.  I think I'll set up all 3 and see if I can make 'em
dance.  :-)

You can grab the unlimited 2 person demo.

"The unlicensed server supports two users with five client workspaces
and does not expire. If you need more than 2 users or 5 workspaces for
your testing, we can provide you with an evaluation license (PDF) good
for 45 days for any number of users and unlimited workspaces."
