I used CVS at previous jobs.

Currently the place I work uses git and a set of rules for programmers who 
create DDL changes, including rollback options (such as renaming columns to 
dropme_xxx instead of simply dropping them outright in the first change set).

The SQL files are checked in with a timestamp which controls the order of 
updates when we apply them to runtime.

I've had unpleasant experiences with commercial tools; CVS works well for 
simple environments and git can be used for more tangled development work.

HTH,

Greg Williamson
