Thanks Ralf that was useful although I did not intend to start a "sccs war" here. :-) The only reason I can give is a platitude: One should not use a tool that is more complicated than necessary for the task. Like svn, git seems too complicated to me. But I am sure it could do the job and it is fully distributed too.
