I am using Subversion and have no complaints. Container, one of my apps is text based. I have no complaints. Mind you, Subversion is much smarter about which files have actually been updated than CVS is. Subversions goal #1 is to be better than CVS and they have achieved that.

I don't know about line endings, but then again, don't care really, as long as RB can read the file.

A response from RB tech support leads me to believe I would experience similar issues with SubVersion as I am with CVS.

I will be filing a bug report to address the issues:

When ever you save a Version Control Project it seems to modify (if only on line of text) RB objects that have not been modified. A true Version Control Project should only modify files that the user has edited. Right now the 2006r4 IDE doesn't seem very savvy on this unfortunately.

I am going to also do a Feature Request for a preference for the user to specify Line-Endings for Version Control Projects in RB.

When I get the reports issued ill post the links here.

Anyone else having issues?  Any suggestions?

Yes, use subversion. CVS is so passé.

Subversion looks at the actual file contents, not just the modification time. There are many other benefits to subversion, which you can read all about on their website.

And if you are using Xcodes "File Merge" utility it doesn't recognize
the line endings in the RBVPC's files because they use Mac line-
endings instead of Unix line-endings?....   >:-(

Yes I consider that a bug in FileMerge. The line ending style shouldn't matter as there are 3 common uses and it should support all 3. I would recommend to use TextWrangler instead.
