Using shareware site onsite searches and the keywords "version control"
will gain you a pretty good listing. Softcrawler can be used to hit
several shareware sites at once:
http://www.data-wizard.de/SoftCrawler/index.php3
I also used Google for this purpose and the first results page would
provide you several sources for VC software:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=version+control
Click to page two on those Google results and we find a freeware VC
product:
FreeVCS:

Of course, the big shareware products seem to be CVS, Reliable and QVCS:
http://cvshome.org/
http://www.relisoft.com/
http://www.qumasoft.com/

As to your original question, the following page might give you the
answer you seek...sort of:
Simple Internet Version Control Protocol
http://www.ots.utexas.edu/sivc/
This FAQ of sorts gives a listing of products conforming to this SIVC.

Lastly, I would suggest you drop by this About.com page:
"Version Control Systems"
http://internet.about.com/industry/internet/library/weekly/2000/
aa050200a.htm
Note: The above URL is actually one continuous line and should be
entered into your browser's address box as one line.
Ah...wait...I found another freeware at Acacia Consulting Services:
VCSLite
