Uh... Git was created by the guy who created Linux.
Initially to help manage distributed Linux dev. Not forced on anyone other than Linux devs. Not dominant through nefarious business practices like MS Windows, but because it spread *organically* overtaking other "well designed" systems. People voted with their feet.
