I recommend you put it in your VCS. Having it in the repository does not 
impact anyone negatively and makes everybody's life easier. If you must, 
set up your project so that you can override the default version by 
changing a per-developer setting or an environment variable and you're 
good to go, but this should be for experimentation only. You should 
dictate an approved version and everyone should be using that; otherwise 
someone will commit code that uses newer features not available in 
previous versions and, generally, chaos will take over your project.
