Haha. I guess I had heard the story of dropbox, why not ftp, but I guess this was the story!

I guess it is funny to me that SVN/CVS was there in 2007 since I think git wasn't even invented at the time but now new people won't even know what SVN/CVS are, I only got to know them because I wanted to download a specific folder of github and some stackoverflow comment mentioned svn

Apparently, the first version of Git was released in 2005, but I’m not sure a lot of people have heard about it before GitHub has been launched in 2008.

Wild times! (I was 10, my preferred source control system was “eh I have a backup somewhere I think”.)
