That seems tough. The major architectural differences between
git/Mercurial/Bazaar and Subversion are:
* No commitment to mixed-revision working copies.
* Full history of at least one branch is generally stored on clients.
* DVCS workflow support.
For small projects and a certain class of developers, these can be huge
advantages. For huge projects and a different class of developers,
these can be hindrances.
