 In what way(s)?

I'd be interested in this too.  I've been using Bitkeeper for, well,
Linux development, but I don't see anything which locks it in to that
direction.  Of course, Bitkeeper isn't free either, so there's no
particular reason to prefer it to p4.

Bitkeeper is free if you publish your repository; P4 is free
if you are a free software project.  Otherwise, they cost.

Both are barriers to commercial utilization of free code, in
the same way.
