Check out this thread on the Fedora-Developer list:

<https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2004-December/msg00549.html>

Extract from the 2nd message in the thread:

>> Is there any discussions about using Subversion or GNU
>> arch/Bazaar (http://bazaar.canonical.com/) instead of
>> cvs for the repositories.

> Yes - Cristian Gafton did months of extensive testing to see if either
> could stand up to the load of internal and external checkins on the
> scale red hat does with distributions.
>
> He found that cvs was the only one to stand up to the load.

It would be interesting to learn more about this testing. It may be that
Gafton's issues are now addressed, or it may be that there's some useful
stress-testing data that could be used to improve Subversion.
