Give Me CVS
Ever since I became officially invovled in Drupal, the importance of version control system seems to grow larger in my point of view. The ease of use in coding over a duration, and working on multiple projects, with multiple people, are all the advantages of using a version control.
CVS is just one of the systems used for version control. There are others like SVN.
My day job invovles development, and that too in a team of other developers with mutliple projects that share code between each other. The present version control system (or seeming lack of it) leaves a lot to be desired. The difference in working on my 'bread earning' projects and Drupal project is like day and night.
I am pushing for the use of CVS (or any version control as a matter of fact) in my workplace. But as in all corporate settings, things move pretty slowly. There are a lot of hoops to jump through.
