Isn't it possible to do hard links with svn, git or whatever?

So as in your example, mmsys.cpl would be located in the audio sub tree, 
and hardlinked to the UI/cpl directory.

All modern filesystems support hard links, that wouldn't suprise me if 
modern version control systems would do the same.

What do you think?
