Heya,

There was a poll on the GSoC students mailing list: "What is your
favorite revision control system?". From the 100 responses so far, my
vote topled the balance in favor of Git ;). As a statistics junkie I
think it's fun to see that the only real competition among GSoC
students is Subversion, which has about as much market share as Git.
(Surely the 1 vote for TFS/SourceSafe must have been a misclick.) At
least nobody can claim we're the underdog RCS anymore!

Git		40% (40)
Subversion		39% (39)
Mercurial		7% (7)
CVS		6% (6)
Bazaar 		5% (5)
Perforce		1% (1)
Monotone		1% (1)
Microsoft TFS/SourceSafe		1% (1)
Other		0% (0)
BitKeeper		0% (0)
