Hmm... should take a look at it some time. Unfortunately, we need
integration with our tools (in particular, Visual Studio.NET), and SVN
just happens to have a variety of client plugins available. On my
current dev machine, I have VS.NET with the AnkhSVN[1] plugin, and the
TortoiseSVN[2] Explorer shell extension.

I'd say SVN is similar to Arch, in that the whole tree is versioned on
commit, sort of like a changeset, but not quite. In fact, there's a
brief discussion on changesets in the FAQ[3].

I've been meaning to look at Arch for some time now... (waitaminute, I
think I'm confusing GNU Arch with tla... must Google...)
