Each version presented by the VCS contains a copy of the GPL.
The GPL for Version 1 (example) would be presented if you checked it out and if you check out Version 2 it's now an Apache 2 license. The license in each case applies to the files in the VCS, a the GPL contains no special case for access to previous or future versions of the same file under it's license under the GPL license, neither does the Apache license and I doubt such a clause would hold water.
