Subject: VCS popularity
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2015 23:56:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAA787rkKYQ=TJezeLy0f=aGs2GR8ypuxmr2qA2py+hGsC+juVA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
openhub.net (formerly ohloh.net) has an interesting comparison of the
number of public repositories on the net, based on searches of popular
hosting services. This comparison is available at
<https://www.openhub.net/repositories/compare> and shows an estimated
market share between Bazaar, CVS, Git, Mercurial and Subversion.
I've been monitoring this since 2014-08-05 to see how things were
developing, and it's a good indication of the popularity of the various
version control systems.
I've created a repository at
<https://github.com/sunny256/openhub-repositories> where the project
scripts and data files are stored, along with graphs in SVG format.
The graphs are pretty interesting:

Zoomed-in version of relative.svg. Git goes through the ceiling.
