Please make a suggestion of the best source control tool I need to choose a version/source control tool.
I am used to Subversion.

You should use what you feel comfortable with but there is a great tutorial (http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/%7Ecduan/technical/git/) for git if you want to learn it.

I personally prefer Git after using various SCMs like Bazaar, Mercurial, Subversion and CVS.

@OP: Perhaps you want to tell us why you do not want to stick to subversion if you are used to it? If you are, on the other hand, satisfied with it, it is normally not a bad idea to stay with it.

You didn't tell us what you dislike about SVN and neither what you actually do with it. Is this single-user use for your personal trees?

Myself I never gotten to like SVN over CVS. Sure it has cheap branches but when it comes to actual daily use I think the SVN people put in all the wrong options.
