it's also one of the first :taz_blep:

Concurrent Versions System (yes, plural) was the first version control to have... Concurrency. RCS (Revision Control) and SCCS (Source Code Control) both locked files on checkout, meaning only one used could work on them. CVS changed from lock-modify-unlock to checkout-modify-merge. It's networking component is... Weird. And intentionally nonatomic to conserve resources.

SVN was "do everything the complete opposite of CVS" and then Git was "do everything the complete opposite of SVN"

I don't really want to call myself an authority on version control systems, but since I am kindla sorta an authority on version control systems, if you want me to explain the weirdness with how all half dozen of the common ones operate, let me know
