        This is a comparison of version-control systems. It is split
        into several categories and sub-categories under which the
        systems are checked.

            <expl>
                Support for atomic commits means that if an operation on the
                repository is interrupted in the middle, the repository will
                not be left in an inconsistant state. Are the check-in
                operations atomic? Are the check-in operations atomic, or can
                interrupting an operation leave the repository in an
                intermediate state?
