Git itself.

Which allowed this monstosity I contributed heavily to, to leave a hellscape of svn patches: https://github.com/LandSandBoat/server

So git earns the "favorite" designation hands down.

There’s nothing more open source than Git. It’s open source software created to support the development of open source software. I’d bet that the vast majority of projects named in this thread are developed using Git.

Also, that’s a really cool project!

The only thing that even has a chance at being a contender against is gcc

git is the best, but sometimes I wonder if its total domination in the SCM market is really a good thing.
