Hmm no mention of Mercurial which was also released around the same time as Git and IIRC was also a contender for Linux kernel development VCS.

Larry McVoy basically forced the creation of Git via Andrew Tridgell and look where we are today - while world uses Git. Larry must have had his reasons but I wonder how he feels about the outcome.
