YES but without any header updates to the files.
Once unzipped you have no idea what version a file is, and that IS
causing problems in the field. If you can replace the whole package of
code, then it may not be a problem, but well structured pakcaged
systems really need a little help when people can THEN mix and match.
I can't speak for other DVCS systems, but you could use a git "smudge
filter" to add any sort of source-control headers if you really, really
want to:

Now that is one I have not seen, but outlines the reasons for wanting it nicely.
It does highlight another part of this jigsaw ... need ruby running as well as
python and php ;)
I know that we are not going to get a nice clean PHP solution, but the spread of
languages needed just seems to be growing just to add DVCS?
