[7]Introduction to CVS
CVS is a version control system, an important component of Source Configuration
Management (SCM). Using it, you can record the history of sources files, and
documents. It fills a similar role to the free software [8]RCS, [9]PRCS, and
[10]Aegis packages.
CVS is a production quality system in wide use around the world, including many
free software projects.
While CVS stores individual file history in the same format as RCS, it offers the
following significant advantages over RCS:
* It can run scripts which you can supply to log CVS operations or enforce
site-specific policies.
* Client/server CVS enables developers scattered by geography or slow modems to
function as a single team. The version history is stored on a single central
server and the client machines have a copy of all the files that the
developers are working on. Therefore, the network between the client and the
server must be up to perform CVS operations (such as checkins or updates) but
need not be up to edit or manipulate the current versions of the files.
Clients can perform all the same operations which are available locally.
* In cases where several developers or teams want to each maintain their own
version of the files, because of geography and/or policy, CVS's vendor
branches can import a version from another team (even if they don't use CVS),
and then CVS can merge the changes from the vendor branch with the latest
files if that is what is desired.
* Unreserved checkouts, allowing more than one developer to work on the same
files at the same time.
* CVS provides a flexible modules database that provides a symbolic mapping of
names to components of a larger software distribution. It applies names to
collections of directories and files. A single command can manipulate the
entire collection.
* CVS servers run on most unix variants, and clients for Windows NT/95, OS/2
and VMS are also available. CVS will also operate in what is sometimes called
server mode against local repositories on Windows 95/NT.

other ways to obtain CVS, please read [21]How to get GNU Software.
[22]CVS Help and Bug Reports
Help requests and bug reports are handled for free, on a volunteer basis, on the
[23]CVS Mailing Lists.
Companies offering commercial support for CVS are listed in the [24]CVS Wiki. You
may also wish to look at [25]March Hare for CVSNT support as well as [26]Syntevo
for SmtartCVS.
