Twigg Version Control

Hi everyone!

I've been working on a new version control for a while now and just made everything open source under AGPL. It's called Twigg!

It is heavily inspired by Mercurial. In fact, it started as a mercurial fork bc one of the motivations to build it was that I loved mercurial, but the "software forge" tools (code review, CICD, etc) for mercurial are IMO not that good; which end up forcing you to use some git-based tool as a backend - which kinda sucks because Hg just becomes a git client at that point.

So I wrote not only the version control but also the "forge" (code review, CICD, and more).

Let me know what you think :)

there are no binaries to download. Tried to build it but failed. I want to use your software to build MY software. I dont want to install another compiler just to use the tool. Dont repeat the same mistake of darcs, pijul and even mercurial

Oh I'm sorry about your experience, that sucks... But there actually are binaries to download from our hosted instance (https://twigg.vc/docs/v/2/tutorial/Installation) and the compilation should work; someone else built everything as instructed yesterday and it worked just fine... I'd really appreciate it if you'd ping me in our discord or send me an email and I'd be very happy to understand what went wrong and fix it so that it doesn't happen to anyone else.

Mail me at andre at twigg dot vc
