people think it's very solid, but I've seen many db crashes at HP.

Being written in Perl on top of Svn bindings may not inspire

confidence. robertc says he's worked with the libsvn bindings and

they're a mess. Relatively little documentation. In general a

feeling of a very tall stack.

There is some fluff about defining multiple repositories, which seems

like an argument for history-in-branch.

Keeps track of merge arrows to do smart merges.

They follow Perforce in not having any control files in the tree --

nice in some ways but you must use the right tool to move or delete a
