This should be possible for any reasonably sane scm; c.f. cinap's hgfs.

But all the DVCS in the world doesn't let us see code that is never uploaded
in the first place.  I can't even count the number of programs that are only
even known by oral tradition, mentioned only in passing, then never to be
heard of again. "Oh, I'll upload it when it's ready."  Years go past: nobody
has even defined 'ready.'  Nowadays when someone says "it's not ready for
the world to see" I just read "I am a liar and I have nothing."

Plan 9 is fully self-sufficient;  code review tools don't review code.
People review code.  They just have to see the code first.
