[ritual offering]

As an alternative to SCCS, you might check up on Walter
Tichy's (at Purdue) Revision Control System (RCS), which
is after the pattern of SCCS, but slicker.  It's still
not automatic multi-generation files, but it doesn't
require you to put obnoxious junk in your source files
to work right.  I'm not very familiar with SCCS, but
RCS is reasonably fast, space efficient, and provides
for very good documentation of saved versions if you
want.
