Agreed. And I suggest anyone doing such a study investigate all
the different parts of bitkeeper, not just its file-management /
distributed repository features.
Little things make a lot of difference. Things like per-file
comments on checkins instead of a single per-checking comment.
And ease of use for some really mundane merge-tasks (See my earlier
mail in this thread for details)
It's only through actual usage patterns that you'll see all the
neat time-saving gizmo's in there.
