Does anyone use Fossil source control? I've always been interested by it, but it just seems to stay under the radar. I'm curious if there's a functional reason for that, or if github just got to be good enough.
Been using it for years and absolutely love and highly recommend it.
Single executable you just download and put in your path. Sane, well-documented interface. Full repo in a single SQLite file. Highly intelligent and efficient diff-based storage and compression (including network transfers). Rock-solid code.
I think it's kind of a tragedy the dev world got so stuck on git. Maybe not too late!
Fossil is the SQLite one right? I would love to try alternatives SCM tools, but you run into the fact that associated tooling is so concentrated on git and its processes.
I was using bitbucket and mercurial for a while! If fossil had something similar (which off the top of my head, I think they do? Something wiki-like for the SQLite project) I would be willing to mess around with it on a small team or something.
