I will add it, to GitTrivia or GitHistory. Thanks to everyone for the info. I'm giving a talk about revision control tomorrow, which is what inspired the question. I'll be saying that git is very cool. :-) Looking back at previous systems, I was surprised at how capable (if ugly) SCCS appears to have been. (I got my start on RCS.) Did you know it had an "annotate" option (a la 'cvs annotate')? I didn't. On another topic, it might amuse you to know that there's yet another 'git' floating around. It's part of a bioinformatics package called SEALS. Though it hasn't been maintained in several years, we have it installed at work. Mike
