I'm not trying to reinvent a new version control. But due to this drawback, I avoid use a version control system. Rather, I compressed my source code in a tar file whenever necessary. But if a version control system has this capability, I'd love to use it. And I don't think that no version control system support this is because of any technical difficult but rather because of practical issue (maybe it takes a lot efforts to add this feature to an existing version control system?). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
