Options for Source Code Control: RCS v. SCCS v. CVS

2004-07-10 Thread Richard Heintze
I need some help understanding how RCS works. I typed "info RCS" and felt confused. Is RCS like CVS in the sense that one runs a un*x deamon or windows service on a remote node and legions of programmers use a client implemented with sockets or pipes. If so, (1) how do I start the service or deam
