Git seems to be by far the most common choice these days. I’ve used perforce, cvs, svn and visual source safe before. Really, the biggest factor is the expertise of the person(s) managing the: integrations, reviews protocols, frontend, automation, etc.

Yeah I've used pretty much all of them during my time. It really also depends on the logistics, for example is it for your company or private use? How will you be making backups (/and offsite) etc.
For my current personal game dev I use Git, since it covers all my use cases.

Git, because who still uses SVN or CVS
Important thing is to use a version control system that supports how your team works. I personally prefer trunk-based development and both SVN & GIT are perfect for that.
CVS also supported it but last stable release was 13 years ago.
