+Monotone is a free distributed version control system. It provides a simple,
+single-file transactional version store, with fully disconnected operation and
+an efficient peer-to-peer synchronization protocol. It understands
+history-sensitive merging, lightweight branches, integrated code review and 3rd
+party testing. It uses cryptographic version naming and client-side RSA
+certificates. It has good internationalization support, has no external
+dependencies, runs on linux, solaris, OSX, windows, and other unixes,
+and is licensed under the GNU GPL.
+
+Monotone requires Botan and Lua for building.
