Very nice article! I still use RCS at home for some items and I always liked the locking feature, it avoided lots of issues and it in a way forced changes to be small when using in a team. Plus it forced developers to communicate with each other :) Plus I really like its "$Id$" function when checking in the change. But I have moved some items to git over the past few years, I like its signing function and on OpenBSD it works with Emacs. RCS on OpenBSD aborts in Emacs unless you install package grcs (GNU RCS) and block OpenBSD's RCS. I only wish git had a built in like "$Id$". I have figured out a work-around but I still would rather have a similar function as RCS has. At work I finally got people to use git a few years ago, there no one used any form of Source Code Control and it was utter chaos.
