    note:
    * Really makes you think about 'the right tool for the job'
    * Fossil seems more suitable for small-scale, closed-source projects than Git

    So why are we all using Git, a version control system that was designed to support a globally-developed open-source project like the Linux kernel?
    Are all projects like that?
    Is your project like the Linux kernel?
    Or does it look more like SQLite?
    Surely something to think about.
