What is CFL?
You've tried CVS, SVN (Subversion), Git, Mercurial, and others. Isn't it time to try a little more green of a distributed version control system?
CFL is the first green distributed version control system (DVCS). Inspired by "twisted but brilliant" compact fluorescent lights, CFL offers full DVCS services at a download weight of a very green file size of just under 8k.

Thank you for using CFL! dev ~/directory $ sleep 5; cfl commit To encourage efficient use of resources and a green footprint in terms of bytes taken by commits, CFL has disabled editor-based commit messages in favor of command-line inline commit messages, e.g. cfl commit -m 'Last commit before adding experimental feature.' Please try again using an inline commit message. Thank you for using CFL! dev ~/directory $
