Given that the various supported vc backend use different terminology
I would to see a table listing emacs vc concepts and terms with the
corresponding terminology for each backend.

Also, given the dvc project expressed hope of ultimately shipping with
emacs I would hope that vc and dvc would settle on common terminology.
