Do you know of a tool (VCS or otherwise) that allows to checkout parts of a tree
with history and other parts without history?
If you talk about using different tool for different parts of the tree, then,

Perhaps you had a success using your model of different tools per different
parts of tree.  Maybe it saved you days when you were using a modem for internet
