If Git would be overkill here, what would you propose as an alternative? I use Git on every project I work on, whether I'm the only one working on it or not, and it's saved my bacon more times than I can count!
I have! I used to use it primarily a long time ago, but then I switched to using Git for my personal stuff when my job converted their repositories to Git - easier to keep one tool in my head! I still miss Darcs' UI - best VCS UI I've ever used.
If you don't plan to let other people contribute to your repositories, git might be overkill.

Have you tried Darcs? It is perfect for small projects - and it won't cause problems when you try to merge multiple incompatible features.

You should try again! :-)
Not everything is a nail just because you have a hammer.
