Since JSP pages are text, just like HTML pages are, I've had no problems using CVS
to store them (and track the changes, et al) alongside my Java source. In my
case, it's all in the same project directory because the beans code and the JSP
pages are pretty tightly intertwined from a logical perspective.
One thing that makes this easier for me is that my "development tool" for both JSP
and java code is EMACS, which has very nice hooks into CVS (and RCS or SCCS as
well). If you're using a GUI tool to build either, the ease of use is going to
depend quite heavily on how well your GUI environment interacts with your selected
source code control environment.
