For 1986, that's fairly unlikely.

At G+, Noah Friedman, who's part of the team who worked on the code, has inquired occasionally about the availability of some early Emacs code. Pre-1990, if I recall.

I'm not sure he ever turned that up even as a standalone tarball, let alone from a revision control repository.




There is BSD revision control history going back to the early 1980s, e.g. http://svnweb.freebsd.org/csrg/sys/sys/errno.h?view=log


Impressive, thanks.
