rcs is good for single files, does not need much to setup. not good for sharing between colaborators. svn is 'better' version of cvs (cvs is not much supported by lyx anyway). it needs more expertise to setup, but its can track the whole archive of files (child documents,pictures,bibtex files etc). > way to configure any of them on Ubuntu? for rcs only installing is enough. you can immediately use "register" in lyx VC menu. be careful only single document file is tracked, not its pictures... for svn you need to google some svn guide. >And a follow-up question: How does > version control works when I am using master and child documents? you need to register all childern as well. pavel
