- mdaniel 4y agoMarket dynamics may be true, but the continued use of git has more to do with workflow than implementation. Fossil makes quite a few dogmatic choices and if one buys into them, then fantastic, but it's for sure not a drop-in replacement for the way teams develop software, and thus would require a teamwide "hard fork" This debate comes up every time git and fossil are mentioned in each other's threads
