It would also be nice if it integrated with VS2005.

See my reply in the same level as yours. Go read it then get AnkhSVN: http://ankhsvn.tigris.org/[^] I have used it with VS 2005 and found it to be worthy of recommendation. It's a nice little add-in.

NOT CVS. One of the biggest piles of crap I've ever used.

Source control seems to be a complex process.

You know it really is. I won't even tell you I pretend to understand half of it. Search the lounge a while back someone posted about the source control methods Microsoft used for Vista. I was reading it thinking :omg: that's complex. I really think you just have to moderate your own needs. For guys like us not working in large groups compiling applications in separate builds and then doing team builds weekly source control can be a lot simpler. I have SVN configured very simply and it's very simple to use. The Ankh add-in really takes it a step simpler where it's just *right-click* -> *select action* (check in/out) and keep coding on your merry way. That post I link back to might look complex but if you read through it slowly and carefully you can have SVN up and running in less than 30 minutes which I don't think is to bad for a product that is free. Honestly though, for the type of check in/out you and I need I think VSS 2005 is just fine to. I use it on some of my other boxes and it's never treated me wrong.

Subversion is great. We just completed a migration from an old RCS-based system. The conversion with cvs2svn[^] works very well. If you're used to CVS (which isn't bad; SVN is just better) or VSS (which is bad X| ), SVN just takes a little getting used to. The TortoiseSVN on-line documentation is quite good. Bob

I have spent most of the last week researching and testing different open source source control offerings. We need branched source control with the ability to build to a version as well as being able to integrate with VS2005 and support automated builds. CruiseControl.net gives me the automated builds and can use subversion as the source control. There is a plugin that integrates subversion into vs2005 and it works pretty good so far. I am struggling with the build scripts in CruiseControl.net but I have to accept this since I did not have to pay anything either. I got most of my help from the postings here on CP however there is plenty of help on the web and even free books(pdf). I need to get the environment up and runing by next week so the team can get use to it and so far it is comming together pretty good for open source. Best of luck with the search.

I will add a nod for Subversion like most of the other folks. The subversion book http://svnbook.red-bean.com/[^] for getting started.
I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:

Just my opinion but, VS integration is overrated. Esp with quality tools like Subversion. Many end up just using the VS forced view and subset of the tool rather than using the tool as it was meant to be used.

Sourcegear Vault -- free for personal usage. I've just migrated from SourceSafe (been using them since the DOS-version). When it comes to integration with VS2005 I have no idea. I keep them separated.
