Central source code repository using CVS (free, good free tools as well).

Every developer has Developer Edition locally and a full version of the site.

We also have several shared dev servers for developers to test
integration of their work (and multiple QA servers for testing).

We often have multiple code branches active at any one time, to cater
for multiple project releases.

Every server and workstation is configured as close to identically as
possible (CFMX J2EE, separate document root, Apache etc - our
deployment environment is multiple clustered Solaris servers).

We mostly shared one dev database but we have a "crash'n'burn"
database for schema development and an additional dev database for
code branches that require incompatible schema changes (rare, but it
happens sometimes).

We also have a bugbase - Bugzilla - which is a great way to track all
issues, not just bugs.

And we have an automated build system that we can run from the CVS
server out to any shared dev / QA or production server. It's
home-grown, a mixture of Ant, Perl and Unix shell scripts. We tag all
release candidate builds so we can automatically reproduce a known,
tested code base directly from CVS to a target server.
