Fossil actually fits this use case better than git or mercurial, because fossil is just a 700 kb executable that you can take with you. No need to install a package or hunt for cygwin versions.
and the whole repository is just a single file. Backing up your whole project and the SCM is a matter of copying two files over.
Git is a swiss army knife for fossil's switch blade.

- jfager 16y agoFossil has a wiki, issue tracker, etc, all in a small little portable package - it's far more deserving of the 'swiss army knife' label than git. Git's more like an industrial lathe or something.
- FraaJad 16y agoagreed! I was running low on industrial terminology atm.
