Although shunning mainstream tools like git is probably rooted in a "not invented here" attitude, I love that they bother to do so. Of course it's interesting to see what bespoke solutions they come up with, but it's amazing to see such a highly complex piece of software come with such a trivial set of dependencies. Indeed, even if it's antisocial for the SQLite devs to play in their own sandbox, the end result is nothing but increased portability for the rest of us.
