Evolution of The Unix Codebase

Operating Systems, Unix

Just discovered that Diomidis Spinellis has created The Unix History repository on GitHub. This repository contains the full source trees of Unix releases over the last 43 years from the Epoch at Bell Labs in 1972 through to the FreeBSD 10.1.0 in 2015.

It’s fascinating to watch Ken and Dennis in action renovating the code base.
