AFAIK, Sun moves the whole OpenSolaris tree (kernel, userspace, docs,
EVERYTHING) into Mercurial. They IIRC use "forest" add-on to manage
multiple trees (for different parts of the system) at once.
I think Hg with it's tree backed up into Venti would be great thing to have :-)
And for big projects... I heard something about Vesta, but judging
from the webpage it's really complex system and Unix only.
