You want to use a Source Code Management tool
for this...
Open source solutions include
Subversion, CVS, (older - RCS, SCCS).
All of the above have limited security and integrity controls.
That means that you can loose a version of a piece of source
code and not find out until later (very bad).
A lot of people use (and like) Perforce (actually a wrapper around RCS).
Older commercial technologies include ClearCase (widely used from IBM now).
I am writing a review of Accurev (awesome!) for CM Crossroads.
There are many other good tools out there. Feel free to write to me at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] in regards.

Subject: RE: Version Management
By Version management I mean Version management of Software release. Say
I have 3 different versions of the same software deployed(v0.1, v0.2 and
v0.3) is it possible to use maven as a version management tool for this
software and configurable in such a way that v0.1 gets deployed on
Environment1(Say Test environment) and v0.2 gets deployed on another
Environment2(Say Development)
Thanks and Regards

Well I guess it depends upon your definition of
version management. Some people (mistakenly) think that the shared
repository actually "versions" objects that are deployed
(as if it were a version control tool such as
Accurev or ClearCase). The shared repository is just
a file system where you promote shared objects (but
they are not version controlled by maven.)
Yes you can use Maven to identify versions of your code.
