> the one guy behind it also wrote a book about VCSs called Version Control
By Example

That one guy (Eric Sink) is actually a pretty well-respected VCS developer
& small business owner; Veracity was not a one-man project, it was an
Apache licensed company product.

In the early 2000s if you had to use VisualStudio and were afraid of the
abomination known as Visual SourceSafe (VSS), then SourceGear
<http://sourcegear.com/> & Vault were your best friends.

Veracity was going to be SourceGear's DVCS follow-up to Vault building on
the lessons learned from Git/Hg which in-turn learned from
Monotone/tla/Darcs/SVK/etc.  Veracity basically died two years ago, I
assume because they concluded the DVCS market was saturated and they
couldn't make any money.  Although the PlasticSCM
<https://www.plasticscm.com> guys are unabashedly pursuing it to great
success, I believe.

Instead, Eric et al formed Zumero <http://zumero.com/> using the
distributed tech they developed for Veracity and applying it to SQLite &
MS-SQL server.  Zumero provides bi-directional data replication for mobile
devices & enterprise servers.
