Narf has been in subversion for ~ 2 years.  Subversion has been  
great.  I've had some trouble with the hot_backup.py script.  You  
might want to plan on taking some time to set up the backups.

Subversion's externals support is neat and simple.  It might be  
something that could help with organizing commits / etc.

Cheers,
