Just some anecdotes around VCS use… At uni back in ~2000 was the first time I ever heard of version control. It was a bit of a curiosity, nobody seemed to be using it. In 2004, engineering at the place I worked (you've heard of it) were developing PL/SQL in production with no VCS. In 2007, I worked in IT at the same place. They were developing in SharePoint without VCS. When I asked if I could use VCS, I was told to use a 1996 or so Visual SourceSafe which was more temperamental than Subversion. The first place I worked that used VCS was in 2008, and only because the devs had started using it against the wishes of the principal developer. The world moves fast and slow at the same time.
