Katie snapshot-18
http://freshmeat.net/releases/115479/

    all files (even deleted ones) are accessible through this filesystem
(so the "katie diff" command is a convenience rather than a
    necessity like "cvs diff"), and that directories are     versioned (just like files are). It is functional enough to be     self-hosting, but there is much work still to go before it will be a     generally useful tool. Features that are implemented already include     VOBs, elements, branches, dynamic views, view-extended pathnames,     config specs (including auto-make-branch rules), labels, hard links,     and symbolic links.
