 What is Concurrent Versions System? - a definition from Whatis.com - see also: CVS
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is a program that lets a code developer save and retrieve different development versions of source code.
CVS was created in the Unix operating system environment and is available in both Free Software Foundation and commercial versions.
The writers of the most popular CVS Frequently Asked Questions document are careful to emphasize that CVS is not a build system, a code configuration management system, or a substitute for other good development practices, but simply a way to control the versions of the pieces of a program as they are developed.

 Concurrent Versions System CVS
CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is a program that allows multiple users to access, modify and update (pseudo)simultaneously a set of files in a directory or several directories, without getting in each other's way, most of the time.
Its principles are described more in detail in Dick Grune, Concurrent Versions System, a method for independent cooperation, IR 113, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, pp.
I remember thinking about the complicated interrelated decisions that had to be made - there were RCS files, user files and entries, each of which could be absent, in conflict, removed, etc. - standing at the bus stop at the university waiting for the bus home, in bad autumn weather (1985).

  Concurrent Versions System (CVS) | Eclipse Blog   (Site not responding. Last check: )
After you have checked in your changes, the file version beomces 1.1, and any other user that has access to the repository can update their local copy with this version 1.1 from the repository.
With the time, the file continues to be edited and newer and newer version are checked in, Since the repository has the file and all the old versions of that file, you are table to ask the repository for “ TestClass.java 1.2 “ (1.2 is the version no), even when the latest version is 1.56.
Along with single files versioned, everything in the repository can be marked as part of one version with a feature called “ Tag ” in CVS (“ Label ” in other versioning systems).

CVS stores all the versions of a file in a single file in a clever way that only stores the differences between versions.
Another aspect of change control, in some systems, is the ability to keep track of the status of each change.

 Concurrent Versions System (CVS)   (Site not responding. Last check: )
There is a facility for software developers to bring their private copies of the sources up-to-date with the currently checked in revisions, while at the same time preserving any modifications that have been made to their private sources.
Note that this is the biggest change from the way most other revision control systems work, like stand-alone RCS or SCCS, which allow only one developer to ever be changing a file, since the file must be checked out as ``locked'' for the exclusive use of that person.
Concurrency checks are performed on the soon-to-be checked in file and the file must be up-to-date before it can be made permanent.

Some systems call this a checkout, but CVS uses that term for obtaining a copy of the sources (see section Getting the source), an operation which those systems call a get or a fetch.
And rather than having the system simply forbid both people editing the file, it can tell you what the situation is and let you figure out whether it is a problem in that particular case or not.

 CVS Concurrent Versions System Training and Implementations
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is the dominant open-source network-transparent version control system.
CVS uses a client update process for version control, which allows the user to merge changes into his/her workspace, when the time is right, and to control and test the merged changes before they are returned to the server.
Version control is not just for developers, and AFORA also offers training sessions for staff members who require CVS for controlling documentation.

 Concurrent Versions System
CVS is a VersionControl software system, often used in OpenSource products, which allows several developers to work on the same code at the same time.
Concurrent changes that do not 'conflict', or touch the same lines of a file in different ways, are merged automatically.

 CVS: Concurrent Versions System LG #57
CVS is a cool program to let people control different version of their software.
I have noticed the the "cvs commit" command should recursively go through all directories from where you are currently at and list all the changes in one file.
However, on some systems, it makes a one file per directory, which means right before it uploads the changes to the repository, cvs starts the editor for each directory that has changes, which is annoying.
