CVS is a "change control" type system for UNIX. Concurrent Version
System, or something like that. Very old and so perhaps a bit "crufty",
but generally reliable. Most Linux people have moved to "Subversion" or
"git" as their "change control" software. "git" was designed and written
by Linus Thorvalds for maintaining the Linux kernel.
