I know other version control software exists, but does anyone use it? Why? What are the differences? All I’ve ever actually seen people use is git.

    You clearly haven’t used ClearCase. That would seriously reallign your definition of “pain”… :-)

      I used ClearCase too :) And it was painful. But I don’t think CVS and/or ClearCase are considered to be meaningful alternatives to Git at this day and age. I was mostly thinking about Mercurial and Fossil. They are brought up as alternatives to Git more often. That’s my observation at least.
