Fossil vs Git Comments
Positive comment by Guest · Apr 22, 2020
Its CLI is simpler, there is a filosofy of always preserving the history instead of giving the chance of rewriting it (hence the name "Fossil"), the data structure is a fully ACID-compliant database, queryable with SQL, it has many functions out of the box, and it's a single executable file.
