Subversion (the opensource replacement for CVS) does this
too. See http://subversion.tigris.org for more info. Subversion
si available now and in-use today (even in production use at
several places who already like it better than CVS) even tho it
is still pre-1.0. It will be at version 1,0 by the end-of-the
year and will look very familiar to CVS users.
