SourcePuller[1] is a free software client for accessing the BitKeeper version control system. It was originally developed by Andrew Tridgell, who – according to BitKeeper developer Larry McVoy – reverse engineered the BitKeeper protocol.[2] While not widely used itself, it is best known for triggering the BitKeeper controversy,[3][4] which sparked the switch of the Linux kernel from BitKeeper to Git.[citation needed]
