Git is a tool I like, a lot. Before git, you could do RCS {& some others} which is a totally different tool set.

In this video Linus Torvalds talks about the way he created Git two+ decades ago.

What immediately Springs into view, is the fact that Linus gave control of the git project to someone else, as soon as he could he did not want to stay with the project for too long.

Git was created because of pure necessity; it was vital for kernel revision control
