Veracity SCM!

[quote author="cemehehko" date="1350586611"]But
vvsupports more features like file moving.[/quote]Which git does, too (git mv). Anyway, I don't know about Veracity, I certainly haven't seen a QtCreator plugin for this one. You can check newest Qt Creator sources from git, it is there.

I am not aware of a veracity plugin. Feel free to contact me if you would consider to work on it. So far Mercurial, Bazaar and clearCase were contributed, so the effort involved seems manageable:)
Git not supporting file moves/copies is a design decision: Linus argued that moving whole files is just a special case of moving some lines of code from one file to another. Moving/copying lines of code between files needs to be good support well and you get support for moving/copying files around for free.
I am not sure why git has git mv now... Maybe the support for moving lines of code is not as good as it needs to be;) Or maybe somebody decided that git is not the "backend" that it was supposed to be but a real SCM which needs to cover real use-cases of real users.

So most probably git mv simply automates the standard git way of moving, that is:
@
git rm file-to-move
git add new/path/to/file-to-move
@
