I only know of commercial products such as Rational Clearcase (which is far 
superior to CVS but very expensive) that handle stuff like directory 
versioning in a great way. It's not suitable for open-source projects though.
I also check into the tigris homepage every couple of months who are 
supposed to be working on a version of CVS which try to address some of the 
problems with CVS but they seem to be moving forward very slowly.
