Writing about USourceControl, comparing us, or putting us in a video? Here is the mark, the colors, the type, and the rules that keep them looking right.

The mark

Two branches, one commit

Two ink branches converge into a single commit node. The strokes take the color of the background they sit on, white on Ink or ink on Paper, and the node is always Signal. It is drawn on a 24-unit grid; never redraw it by hand.

The lockup

The wordmark is lowercase

In the lockup, the wordmark is always lowercase usourcecontrol in Geist, set next to the mark. In writing, the product name is always USourceControl, one word with three capitals.

Keep it whole

One mark, no remixes

The mark works because nothing about it is negotiable. Give it clear space of at least half its own height on every side, and:

Don't recolor the strokes or the node. The node is Signal, always.
Don't stretch, rotate, outline, or add shadows, glows, or gradients.
Don't redraw the mark, change its proportions, or extract pieces of it.
Don't place it on busy screenshots or backgrounds that swallow it.
Don't combine it with your own logo into a shared mark.
Don't animate it beyond a simple fade.
Color

Ink does the work. Signal does the talking.

The palette is a neutral Ink ramp that carries about 95% of every surface, and one chromatic color: Signal. Signal marks the things that matter, a primary action, a live lock, the commit node. Everything else stays quiet so those moments land.

Type

Geist, twice

Everything is set in Geist, Vercel's open source type family. Geist Sans carries the reading; Geist Mono carries the technical: commit IDs, file sizes, labels, and numbers. Headlines are semibold, never bold.

Never lose a day of work again.
