Today in #FreeSoftwareAdvent it's all the great version-control software I've used over the years or am learning. Many had their issues, and I'm only starting to learn Jujutsu now, but I love being able to jump backward in time, compare versions, bisect changes to track down issues, and see notes on why a change was made.

A 3x3 grid of version-control software (RCS, CVS, SVN, BZR, Visual SourceSafe, Darcs, Fossil, Jujutsu, and Git), each with "Thank you" written under it. Except for Visual SourceSafe which has "Not you" under it.
