I still use darcs although, as soon as the project involves other
users, I have to use git.

My biggest darcs repository is 13 years old, 4166 files, 15262 patches. 

Things I like with darcs:

* no branches. Don't add them! The one-branch-per-repo model is much
better

* ease of cherry picking when committing. Generally speaking, ease of
use.

Things I don't like in darcs:

* slowness. Really painful some times, specially during network access
(a lot of chattering)

* no equivalent of gitlab
