+ Simple Revision Control
+
+The venerable RCS (Revision Control System) has survived into the era
+of distributed version control because it fills a niche: sometimes you
+only *want* to track changes in single files at a time - for example,
+if you have a directory full of documents with separate histories.
+
+SRC (Simple Revision Control) is RCS, reloaded. It remains
+determinedly file-oriented and doesn't even track the committer of a
+change (because that's always you), but incorporates the design and
+user-interface lessons of modern systems. It features sequential
+revision numbers, lockless operation, embedded command help, and a
+command set that will seem familiar to users of Subversion, Mercurial,
+and Git.
