What we use to build AlternativeTo
All the tools, services and so on that we use when we develop AlternativeTo. AlternativeTo is built with Next.JS and .Net Core and is hosted on Azure with a SQL backend. We do use a lot of other services as well and you can read all about them below.

Git has always had serious limitations with git blame command and its output per line.

I use Git all the time. I think it is one of the best version control systems.
Forget Subversion and VCS. git just rules. It has great integration with VSCodium and there's many platforms that support git (GitHub, GitLab, etc).
There is basically no way around it anymore. Pretty much every software project uses git for version control and collaboration. It is easy to use and useful, even for private projects in a local directory.
The best thing about Git is that multiple people can work on the same file at the same time without worrying about someone else having the file checked out, or keeping their working copy up to date. As long as the changes are in different parts of the file, Git will happily merge them. The second best thing is that you can do just about anything with it. But the syntax is so cryptic, you'll only remember the commands you use most often, and you'll want to bookmark the documentation.
So: 5 stars for capability, 5 for flexibility, 2 for usability, averaging out to 4.
its the best VCS
