What industry are you part of?

In many domains git has replaced other version control systems.

I would love to see a new approach to version control. Things like subversion or mercurial have exposed too many drawbacks for them to win back industry.

Google and Facebook both don't use git. Google uses a proprietary, perforce-esque system with multiple frontends, and Facebook uses Mercurial.

Among startups, I'm sure git holds a near monopoly, but if you move into other parts of the industry, that monopoly loosens.
