I don't have a preferred VCS, I have ones I dislike (Perforce, MKS,
Subversion). It would be nice to have one in Ada, but more i important to
me are the features:

1. Projects support (no individual files/directories checking in/out)
2. Project dependencies support
3. Project views e.g. integrator's view (dll, exe), user's view (ads, ali,
lib), developer's view (everything) etc
4. Virtual file system (no visible local copies on the clients)
5. Automatic build-test-package support
6. No merging, no way to uncheck anything twice
