    Subversion is dead easy to set up and use (especially with TortoiseSVN). Speaking from practical experience, it's faster and easier than a batch file that copies your code out to a network drive. Hard to beat that... :)

    TortoiseSVN is to manage client-side or server side too?

      Do you use some version control in your development machine? What? Subversion, CVS, VSTS, etc... Do are happy with this version control? Usually we used client version control (by example, to connect in sourceforge, etc). I wish use client and server parts, then I wish listen your opinions, please :)

      I've been using ComponentSoftware's CS-RCS Basic[^] for years. The Basic version is free for personal use, and I found it much easier to set up than the "big boys" like CVS and Subversion. Since I only develop software part of the time, I needed something that didn't require any thought on my part. :) (It's that way with all of my tools, e.g., my favourite PC Board layout program is very easy for me to pick up again after having not used it at all for many months.) -- modified at 15:48 Wednesday 9th August, 2006

          For most tasks, it'll handle both adequately.

            Idem at home, and at work cvs before and now tfvc. I found that tfvc has some strange behaviors. For example: If you only change something in the UI, and make a CheckIn you will not see that checkin in the Changes Histor Window, you will be able to see it if you go to the server, but not from the client pc. At least this is what happens here. Things like this happened to me with tfvc, so personnaly I would not recommend it yet if you search for somehing already used and stable. I like VSS but I don't know any of the mentionned previously, it may worth the shot.

              Hi! I use CVS and for the integration into Visual Studio the PushOK CVS SCC proxy. CVS is free and the PushOK proxy costs 24$, but if you don't need the integration into Visual Studio, you can use e.g. WinCVS which is free.

                Been using Visual Source Safe, but for some time I'm using Tortoise. In my opinion it does a better job. And I feel more safe using it. I've had some bad experiences with VSS.

                          Subversion; Yup, very happy, it just works and works well. Well enough that sooner or later I'm going to find that donation link again and donate to the cause.

                                You make it sound like deodorant. I use CVS. Yes, I'm happy, otherwise I wouldn't use CVS. I have the CVS host running on a remote server that also hosts my website, so I don't worry about backups for the source code. Marc
