CVS has been one of the most widely used version-control software on Linux. But what about Windows users? The answer is CVSNT. You can use this along with a lot of Windows plug-ins to have your own CVS server on Windows. You can download the latest version of CVSNT from cvsnt.org, and the Windows plug-in for client machinescalledTortoiseCVS from switch.dl.sourceforget.net. They are also available on this month's
PCQXtremeCD. TortoiseCVS is a plug-in that lets you manage your CVS graphically. And CVSNT is the CVS environment for Windows.
You may also need to download Perl and C compilers to work with CVSNT. There are some more graphical applications like WinCVS for managing CVS repositories, but TortoiseCVS is the simplest one that we found. Install both CVSNT and Tortoise CVS on your machine.
