No.  Of the DVCSes, only bzr has that.

I don't think that is true for Python, because of the "forward
porting" workflow when a patch is relevant to several branches.  They
are still going to have to do a merge, and do it in the right
direction.  I think "checkout" only makes emulation of centralized
workflow trivial in a single-active-branch development model.  I could
be wrong, but offhand I don't see how it would work.
