Git sort of works on Windows, but you have to install a ton of other
stuff first, and I'd practically have to virtualize to do it (cygwin
conflicts and the like). Fossil is a single executable on Windows and
works just as well there as it does on Unix. My only annoyance is that
it cannot be configured to do line-ending substitution. One of these
days I'll do some scripts to work around it; I understand drh's
reluctance to have the capability in the fossil mainline, given
that the committed version of a file must be bit-for-bit identical
to what the developer presented.
