Subversion

I started experimenting with Subversion, the panacea for the aging CVS, and I am beginning to adore it.
It meshes the branch and directories concept, which may sound a bit frightening at beginning, but really fits my working model.
It also has very nice features, like:

- directory tracking;
- complete file tracking - tracks renames and copies;


I migrated my big CVS repository into Subversion quite painlessly using cvs2svn, setup ssh tunnelling so I can access the repository froma anywhere in the world, and voilá! (Minus some apache mod_python module incompatibilities, which were solved when I installed Fedora Core 3 from scratch).

5 thumbs up! ;)
