Welcome to the Revctrl wiki, where we discuss various revision control systems, and the software and algorithms used to implement them.

Glossary -- some of the technical terms we casually throw around here
ConceptTable -- some of the technical terms other revision control systems used. Helps when 2 systems use different terms for the same idea.
CategoryMergeAlgorithm lists the various merge algorithms we've discussed

the Software Bazaar wiki mentions the distributed wiki which has some similarities to a distributed version control system.
the Unison wiki discusses Unison, a tool for rapidly synchronizing 2 directories over a slow network connection. It can be used as a crude revision control system (backups), or it can be used in conjunction with a standard revision control system to speed up check-ins and check-outs over a slow connection.
the SynchroEdit wiki discusses Synchro Edit, an editor that allows multiple users to share a single X(HT)ML or text document, edit the document the same time, and synchronize changes so that all users have the same version.
