The first version control system I ever used was CVS and it was first released in 1986 so it was already old and well established when I first came to use it.

Anyone in these past forty years not using a version control system to keep track of their source code have only themselves to blame.

Before that, it was RCS, released in '82.

Luckily I'm young enough that I never had to use RCS.
