I know other version control software exists, but does anyone use it? Why? What are the differences? All I've ever actually seen people use is git.

Not to mention, most developers don’t even really care about which SCM they use.

Get them to use CVS for a while. They will care then.

You are right about that! It was a pain to work with :)

I never used CVS but the senior developer at one place mentioned about it once when I complained about subversion which we used there (this was in 2013).
