For the love of god do not use CVS. If you're going to go with centralized version control (which is conceptually easier to grok) then stick with SVN. There's a free book on the web if you're having problems learning how to use it. With TortoiseSVN, I've found it very easy to work with once you have the basic concepts down.
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ There's also the distributed version control systems like Git and Mercurial, but those are going to more conceptually complicated to understand at first. I'd stay stick with Subversion. Reading through the book will help you get comfortable with it. --Bob On Mon, Aug 24, 2009 at 3:12 AM, Olly<oli...@gmail.com> wrote: > SourceSafe is a bit different to SVN, but SVN is alot like CVS (as well as > most new version control systems).
