I think our version
of make may have been based on a System V version as well.
I have much fondness for some early version of make, perhaps that one.
I carried the source around for 15ish years and spanked people who
wrote makefiles that didn't work with that make.
Sadly, my team has moved on to GNU make.
I'm
sure there are other (mainly smaller) examples, though since we
used no source-code control mechanism, tracing the details is
non-trivial.
No SCCS? When did Rochkind do SCCS? Wasn't it early 70's? I gotta believe
there is SCCS history out there. And for the record, BitKeeper can read it.
