Because it has almost nothing in common with CVS, apart from a UI
that emulates CVS slightly.  Hardly a good reason to claim it's

svn++ as well.   We're using it for SpamAssassin with excellent results,
it stole most of the good features from Perforce, and I keep most of my
home directory synced between multiple machines with it (just to get this
