Comment on Version Control Beyond Git

Comments

Most of these are owned by some megacorp, which IMO renders them untrustable, the same may have been true for git at a time (I can't remember if Linus still "worked for" redhat at the time of git's creation), but it's sufficiently insulated from that now - even if MS is viewed as holding github's reins too closely. But I'm not trustly a VCS from facebook, or even google.

The real issue is though, that each time someone writes a new VCS they seem to want to make it centralised again, often with silly ideas like auto-uploading changes. I do dislike the git stash and the "mess" of untracked files in git status, but I'm not sure what the true answer is.
