You have just described git:
http://git-scm.com/
We've been using it for some time now: it's reliable and does what it says on the tin. It can be a tad traitorous for Windoze users as the Tortoise client uses the same lingo the SVN one does, only those terms don't really apply on git so you have to
- switch your mindset to the new terminology or
- use the command line (by far the preferred option)
