I'm using Bazaar for version control: http://bazaar.canonical.com/

Why not check out the C source code to get familiar with that's there [1]
Right now the current version is written in Python and has some bugs that 
need fixing. Are you familiar with Python? Even if you're not, I'm sure that

the current version works would go a long way to helping to see what's 
still missing from the C redesign (alot.)
