* Must preserve existing history from CVS; must be able to export back
14
 
  out to CVS in case they change their mind.
15
 
 
16
 
* Support a single central blessed version.
17
 
 
18
 
* Cheap branches and tagging.
19
 
 
20
 
* Handle repeated merges; remember the last time something was merged.
21
 
 
22
 
* Easy cloning.
23
 
 
24
 
* Copy a named patch set (one or more changes) onto a particular
25

30
 
 
31
 
* annotate function that shows deleted lines.
32

  mirror-sync.)
35
 
 
36
 
* Scale to enormously wide and long history.
