How else would you recommend you refer to multiple versions of a file? Realizing of course that the folks at Sofa used the name first, the term seems (to me) more apt for the Lion feature than for a SVN client. I don't foresee much (if any) more confusion over the name than exists today — "I should try out versions? Versions of what?" It's a name that makes sense for people familiar with Subversion, but not so much otherwise.
It's extremely unlikely that Versions in Lion has anything to do with Subversion, it seems more like a cousin of Time Machine.
