Hi guys, May I suggest you Git as a version control system? It's simply the best. Git is currently used for the collaborative development of the Linux kernel and a lot of Linux-related projects. It has the most advanced features, but can be used with great simplicity by the majority of developers. Ok, here I stop the Git advertisement. ;) For more info google "git". PS: I'm not involved into Git development, nor am I part of Git Marketing dept. (wondering if it exists). I just like it and want to share the info.
