That's true, but how easy is it to annotate a file with each line's
author (or, at least, to figure out who wrote some particular line

wouldn't surprise me if bzr had a similar feature; but that's all
the current generation of version control systems. I don't think
cvs or svn offered that kind of feature.

Just for the record, at least SVN has "svn blame" which will annotate
with the committer's name/id.  I use it all the time at $DAYJOB.  I've
managed to avoid CVS, so I can't speak to that.
