Sure -- just about every "next generation" OSS version control tool gets
this right, or at least does a lot better than CVS -- i.e. svn,
monotone, arch, darchs, and possibly others I haven't heard of.

Gavin and I have been using Monotone for a few weeks now to manage some
development we're doing. I've been really impressed with it --
conceptually, it just "makes sense". Unfortunately the implementation is
currently too immature to consider moving the main development tree
onto, at least for the moment.
