Team Coherence was quite popular with the Delphi developers, seeing that
it was written in Delphi (Object Pascal). Anyway, looking at it even
compared to Subversion, it is a weird way of doing revision control.
Revisions are based on a per file basis and not as an atomic commit
(snapshot of whole repository status) like SubVersion or Git does. If
you wanted a snapshot of a point in time of the whole repository, you
had to create a Label. :-( Ideas change over time I guess. :-)

No problems. And thanks for the hint on git-fast-import. I'll read
up on that a bit later.
