Yes! There is at least one notable revision control system named "Got" — specifically Game of Trees (Got), developed for OpenBSD.

Game of Trees (Got) is a version control system which prioritizes ease of use and simplicity over flexibility. Gameoftrees It's actively developed — version 0.123 was released on February 25, 2026 Gameoftrees , just yesterday.

Got uses Git repositories to store versioned data. At present, Got supports local version control operations only, and Git can be used for any functionality which has not yet been implemented in Got. It will always remain possible to work with both Got and Git on the same repository. Lobsters

So "Got" is essentially a friendlier, simpler front-end to Git's underlying storage format, designed with OpenBSD's philosophy of simplicity and clean code in mind.

uGOT / uGOTme? (sort of like the idea behind uTorrent) but I will agree that sbankowi's idea of Yet another got is great as well. +1 to that as well.
