Which old times are you referring to / what are "sensible" names?

I thought about it and I don't know what a better name would be. Off the top of my Head, I know Perforce, BitWarden, Subversion, fossil and git. And then the abbreviations CVS, RCS and SVN.

Do any of these qualify as a descriptive name?

As a British national I like to think git is a very descriptive name, because git is a git to use and understand.

For a US southerner it works too. We can use the tool to 'git' our code.

I don't just mean version control systems, but since you mentioned them: CVS (concurrent version system), rcs (revision control system) and subversion all seem fairly descriptive to me?

At one point in my career, I used Microsoft SourceSafe, which is a pretty descriptive name. Seems like the exception here, though.

You probably mean BitKeeper. BitWarden is a password / secrets manager.
