I'm not trying to reinvent a new version control. But due to this
drawback, I avoid use a version control system. Rather, I compressed
my source code in a tar file whenever necessary. But if a version
control system has this capability, I'd love to use it. And I don't
think that no version control system support this is because of any
technical difficult but rather because of practical issue (maybe it
takes a lot efforts to add this feature to an existing version control
system?).
