Hello, all.

I'm suffering a bout of unsatisfied curiosity: What are some un-orthodox, but 
useful applications for version control systems (VCS) that you have employed or 
heard of others employing in day-to-day work?

My own un-original example: importing my home directory into a VCS repository to essentially 
provide an archive solution with considerable "backup" history. (This was something I 
remember being suggested in a magazine article, possibly by David Blank-Edelman [ 
http://goo.gl/jJwiP ]. He also suggested this in one of his "Over-the-edge System 
Administration" talks at LISA'07, I think.)

Cheers!
