2. Editing a file automatically checks it out.

I think you're a little confused as to what a checkout is supposed to do (at least if we're talking CVS)... perhaps you mean you want it to 'edit' files when you first modify them?

Yes, that what I mean. Sorry if I'm getting my terminology wrong.

3. Saving a file commits it to the repository

Bad idea in general - I save a file dozens of times before I've made enough changes to commit it. Plus, when I save it won't be complete, nor working - and in any repository with more than two users (including read-only public access) checking in modifications which break the build is a major no-no.

Yes I understand that, but I only wanted the ability to do it.
Are you familiar with IntelliJs local SCM system? Basically it saves a history for every file so you can revert to ANY earlier save of the file. What I'd like is to have some way of making the SCM work like this locally.
