I'll tell you though, setup was a breeze, and it has already paid for itself a couple of times. It's not absolutely perfect, but using it here, without CF Studio's project feature, has gotten pretty easy.

It provides a VSS-like client that connects to a VSS database over tcp/ip. Since we don't do any HTML design ourselves, we use it extensively to allow the external designers have remote access to our files. Jason Carreira wrote: I use PVCS at work, and I like it... For home, or if I was setting up a system from scratch, I'd go with CVS... it's free, and better than most of the commercial ones... Plus, why give more money to M$? It's true that the Windows server version of CVS is not as well supported (as a server) as unix variants, but check this page: http://www.cyclic.com/cvs/windows.html for info about running it locally or possibly as a server... My suggestion, however, would be to run it on a cheap linux box. Linux can be had for free, and a very inexpensive box could be set up for this purpose... Or, if you already have a unix box running for another purpose, you can just put CVS up on that... CVS has several GUI clients, including a java client that runs cross platform...
