CVS is very powerful, but 99% of its use end up to: cvs checkout cvs commit cvs update cvs add cvs remove People here take less than an hour to master CVS, at least for daily use (not administrative tasks).

If it's only for yourself, you can use SourceGear Vault (a commercial tool) free of charge. It would be worth having a look around the other commercial tools to see whether they offer anything similar. Gavin Greig "Haw, you're no deid," girned Charon. "Get aff ma boat or ah'll report ye."

i would suggest Perforce. it is free for up to 2 users and integrates nicely with visual studio 6 (i haven't tried with vs.net). it is very fast and reliable (i've been using it for last 12 months and had no problems so far)

CVS

One of these maybe? http://www.thefreecountry.com/programming/versioncontrol.shtml I've used http://www.ftpvcs.org in the past which was handy as i was working from 2 different locations.

Subversion with the Tortoise SVN, works very nicely (I am on Windows using VS.NET for web-projects in a small team). regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python." Crikey! ain't life grand?

I actually use AnkhSVN as it intergrates with VS.NET

Thanks, will check it out. regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python." Crikey! ain't life grand?

FreeVCS (www.freevcs.de) is also a good one. It's been a while since it's been updated, but it's being converted to opensource (http://jedivcs.sourceforge.net). It's completely free, has a nice ui with lots of features (all sorts of reports, integrated bug tracker, ...). It's a 3tier architecture, with the freeVCS server in the middle that can connect to a couple of database systems (default is a file DB (ISAM)). I even think there's an add-in for VC++6.0 available Regards, Otherside

Subversion comes to mind. "Fish and guests stink in three days." - Benjamin Franlkin

I second that.

Just as a satisfied customer, I'd like to say that Vault is great. It's everything SourceSafe was supposed to be for remote source control. We actually purchased the thing, but it has been a great purchase thus far. Give me one more medicated peaceful moment

[Charlie Williams]

I dig Vault. It's the first source control tool I've used, so I can't directly compare it to anything, but it sure as heck beats the tar out of using nothing. :) Great tool. Charlie if(!curlies){ return; }

Does Tortoise SVN rely on CVS and if so is it vulnerable to the recent exploit? Josef Wainz Software Developer

[Paul Watson]

Yes, TSVN is an add-on for Subversion and SV works on CSV. Not sure if that means it is exploitable :) regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Ian Darling wrote: "and our loonies usually end up doing things like Monty Python." Crikey! ain't life grand?
