BitKeeper is apparently a nice product, however the licence for the 
free-beer version is quite restrictive. It's no longer available from 
the bitkeeper.com site, they instead advise you to install bk and run 
'bk help', but copies of older licences are on the web, eg:

http://www.linuxmafia.com/pub/linux/apps/licences/bitkeeper-3.0-x86-glibc2.2-linux-bkl-licence

Eg:

        (d)  Notwithstanding  any  other  terms  in  this  License, this
             License is not available to You if You and/or your employer
             develop,  produce, sell, and/or resell a product which con-
             tains substantially similar capabilities of  the  BitKeeper
             Software,  or,  in the reasonable opinion of BitMover, com-
             petes with the BitKeeper Software.

could be a problem for some people.

I believe the wording of that section has changed since bk 3.0, but i 
cant find a URL for the current bkl licence.
