If you have full control over the server: 3. !
I'd use Subversion for the codebase: Use the trunk for your development
and branches for the deployed sites. The branches remain stable and if
you feel that a particular site needs some of the improvements you can
merge the changes onto that branch.
And I'd keep the graphics out of version control.
