I am pretty set on subversion already, my problem's been getting the developers to break their bad habits. The process here seems to be someone talks about a bug or something they don't like. A programmer jumps on it with very little planning and starts coding. They think it works, through it into production. I can't tell you how bad my stomach turns when they say "lets just see what breaks" when referring to putting things in production. And unfortunately these habits aren't yet seen as problems by management either. I know its not pretty but I need something for damage control until I can get a handle on things here.
