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.

I actually kind of miss Subversion etc now. Git was perfectly designed for open source projects, but its easy branching model has significantly undermined the practice of Continuous Integration in enterprise environments. I get that maybe devs just prefer working in an isolated branch, but something has been lost.
