In the case of subversion: you really /wouldn't/ want that model.  
Subversion keeps a local pristine copy in the .svn directory of every 
file.  This makes local diffs and stats fast and not require network 
access, but also doubles the storage requirements of your working 
directory.

I've found that a packed git repository is often smaller than a full 
checkout of the project (it's almost scary actually - your entire 
project's history in less space than the project).
