They don't use old tools, they use different tools.
Git development started in 2005, Fossil development started in 2006, they'ré equally modern, and largely do the same things, just in different ways.
- diffxx 4y agoAlso, Fossil is essentially implemented _in_ SQLite. Fossil is used to develop SQLite which is used to implement Fossil. It's a virtuous cycle. For the SQLite project, using Fossil is obviously superior to git. This doesn't mean that arbitrary projects should use Fossil over git.
- ThunderSizzle 4y agoThe opposite can be said though, but git arbitrarily won over a bunch of other DVCS systems (another e.g. hg), mainly because of bandwagon and marketing.
