I would consider CVS and RCS worth studying for historical reasons, since they have no releases for over a decade (according to Wikipedia). I was considering incorporating the history of version control, but there is already a great one here: https://blog.plasticscm.com/2010/11/version-control-timeline... -- it has a great comment section as well. Maybe it would be interesting to create an updated version of the article.

As for "$Id$", in bazel you would use https://bazel.build/docs/user-manual#workspace-status which works very well and can differentiate between stable and volatile.
