Email would actually be better than what I have actually seen because it gives a pseudo-version control system, patches or no:

Shared drives and folders with concurrent edits. Sometimes they'd separate them into "mine/2023.02.14" and "yours/2022.12.10" but that wasn't much better. Actually, because people don't seem to grok lexicographical order, or how to write dates at all, the dates are normally 10-12-2022 and 2-14-2023, guess whether the first one was from October or December.
