Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is a version control system which can record the history of your files (usually, but not always, source code).
|
|
CVS only stores the differences between versions, instead of every version of every file you've ever created. CVS also keeps a log of who, when and why changes occurred.
|
|
|
|
CVS is very helpful for managing releases and controlling the concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors.
|
|
Instead of providing version control for a collection of files in a single directory, CVS provides version control for a hierarchical collection of directories consisting of revision controlled files.
|
|
These directories and files can then be combined together to form a software release.
