Here are a few other interesting metrics:

http://www.ohloh.net/repositories/compare => around 1/4 of the repositories found are Git repositories. Subversion has a bit more than half, and the last 1/4 is essentially CVS.

http://www.ohloh.net/p/compare?project_0=Git&project_1=Subversion&project_2=mercurial&submit_2=Go => Git has 2,659 users on ohloh, Subversion has 7,667 and Mercurial has 795.

From those numbers, centralized VCS are still dominant, but Git really emerges among DVCS, and is not that far behind.
