Why I use Fossil for Version Control

Fossil SCM / VCS how I found it what problem it solved for me and why I still use Fossil over all of the other options available today. Fossil is made by the same people that develop Sqlite, Fossil is a single Exe, and a single sqlite database, CPU, memory and bandwidth efficient. easy to self host and virtually any service, built in Web UI, Bug tracking, wiki, forum, email alerts, chat, and many other hosting features, all inside of a single 10 MB exe downloadable on basically any platform. minimal safe and secure, verifies that all aspects of the repo is consistent prior to each commit. immutable history shows the real history of the project, this simplified approach makes it more secure but also means that rebase is unnecessary. in an age where cathedral style development is become more popular, and AI is becoming a bigger issue, simple efficient approaches like Fossil is making more and more sense.
