pijul
Pijul is a free and open source version control system, intended to be simple to use, yet based on a sound theory of collaborative work, and using fast algorithms. Pijul gathers most of the flame-war-features of version control systems: it has branches, first-class patches and snapshots, is distributed (yet can be used in a centralized way), and even has alternative implementations in different programming languages!

A Coherent Vision for the Future of Version Control
SQLite does it despite using Fossil - their mirror is at https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite
Git is so established now that it's sensible for alternative VCS to have a mode where they can imitate the Git protocol - or seven without that you can still checkout the latest version of your repo and git push that on a periodic basis.

Deep dive into Turso, the "SQLite rewrite in Rust"
"Including the test suite which is something lacking in SQLite"
That's not entirely true. SQLite has a TON of tests that are part of the public domain project: https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite/tree/master/test
They do have a test suite that's private which I understand to be more about testing for different hardware - they sell access to that for companies that want SQLite to work on their custom embedded hardware, details here: https://sqlite.org/th3.html
> SQLite Test Harness #3 (hereafter "TH3") is one of three test harnesses used for testing SQLite.
