CVS Systems

[Anon]

I know that many sites (i.e. sourceforge.net), use something called a "CVS". Now I know it part of it's purpose is to allow multiple people to develop on one project, I've just never used one.

I am going to be working on a web site with another developer, and I need to have some sort of CVS for the coordination of the development. Can anyone recommend a good CVS to use?

What you need is a version control system. CVS is one of these and will be the most highly recommended by the unix croud. CVS is open source and, therefore, free.

Microsoft Visual Source Safe is another version control system but it's real easy to put together a huge list of reasons not to use it.

cvshome.org for info on cvs.

Do you know of any site that offers free CVS hosting for groups with small projects?
