As I'm a programmer I do, as I'm used to it and version control is made for tracking revisions of text, so it is working pretty good with writings.

Pros using version control:

backup is easier, as I once created backup for my repositories I simply put everything that I want to keep under version control
I can see and go back to older versions of my writing
I have a log of my writing activity and can use that for planning
I can test different paths to go through the story and which one pans out best

I personally use bazaar, but which modern version-control you use is more a matter of taste.
