Will you be the only person making code changes?
We used RCS but switched to CVS since we have multiple
developers around the country all working on the same
source code modules.
CVS very easily lets us make whatever changes we want to
any modules all concurrently and when we commit our changes,
it takes care of merging them all together and only asks
for manual help if it happens that we both changed the same
lines of source individually and and both try to check in
our changes.
It has been 1000% better than when we used RCS.
But RCS is probably OK it you are the only person making
changes. With RCS, I had to check out the source files
I wanted to work on and then nobody else could get an
editable copy to work on until I checked it back in.
