  Version Control
Version control (aka source control) is the basic level of SoftwareConfigurationManagement, upon which any more sophisticated SCM is built.
Make sure that the system supports whatever policies you want to have for using and modifying the contents of the repository (who is allowed to check things out, who is allowed to check things in, who will be notified of changes, who will review changes, etc.).
Systems that rely on networked file sharing are much more vulnerable to corruption due to network hiccups and computer outages, and it can be harder to arrange for a clean backup.

 Assume attackers have source code - OWASP
In fact, your the secrecy of your source code is probably not nearly as good as you think.
In most organizations, the source code for applications is stored in a Source Code Control System designed for integrity, not secrecy.
The source code is also probably stored on compile servers and machines that are a part of the build process.

 Chapter 23. Source Code Control System (SCCS)
The Source Code Control System (SCCS) is a complete system of commands that allows specified users to control and track changes made to an SCCS file.
Control characters bracket each portion of the text and specify which delta created or deleted it.
When the SCCS system builds a specific version of a file, the control characters indicate the portions of text that correspond to each delta.

 Source Code Control System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Source Code Control System (SCCS) was the first source code revision control system.
SCCS was the dominant version control system until the release of the Revision Control System.
This storage technique is now considered by many revision control system developers as key to some advanced merging techniques, such as the "Precise Codeville" ("pcdv") merge.

 Integrating with Version Control Systems
Source-Navigator takes a universal approach to interfacing with external version control systems: each operation is performed by executing a particular command line and capturing the output from that command.
Some version control systems require that a file be checked out exclusively before a modified version of it may be checked in.
Consider a version control system that does not adhere to the convention of specifying the version number of a file prior to the filename on the command line.

 CVS-RCS- HOW-TO Document for Linux (Source Code Control System): Introduction
A source code control system is a MUST to manage the changes occurring to a software project during development.
Since source code is the most vital component of any software project and software development takes a huge amount of time and money, it is very important to spend some time in safe-guarding the source code by using source code control systems like CVS and RCS.
CVS (Concurrent Version Control System) is a powerful tool which allows concurrent development of software by multiple users.

 Source Control System/Source Code Repository - AEP Practices
A source control system/source repository is a database where source code is stored.
Source control should allow users to shadow (i.e., copy) code that is already available in the repository, modify code that is already available in the repository, and add new or revised code to the repository.
When you use a source code repository, you can not only track the history of the code but also improve efficiency by ensuring that revisions are not carelessly overwritten.

 Revision control - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is most commonly used in engineering and software development to manage ongoing development of digital documents like application source code, art resources such as blueprints or electronic models and other critical information that may be worked on by a team of people.
Traditionally, revision control systems have used a centralized model, where all the revision control functions are performed on a shared server.
Most version control systems, such as CVS, allow multiple developers to be editing the same file at the same time.

This system will initialy only provide enough of the interface to the SCCS commands to provide us with add, get, checkout, and checkin.
The system will be designed and coded so that the acutal process that is used to do the file level source control on the server [SCCS] is abstracted into the basic operations.
It should also allow for the ability to include new source control systems to be added in the future.

Well I use Source Safe plain and simple, it is free with my MSDN subscription, integrates into VS, yeah I have several complaints about it, and can't wait for team system to come out.
Yeah I will install team system at home unless the source control for it proves to be worse, however Source safe works for what I need at home.
The reason for my using a version control system for these projects is, that I want to be able to undo things if things go bad (which actually never really happened), and it kind of nudges me to document what I am doing while checking in.

 Rules for Effective Source Code Control
Even if you're working all by yourself, source code control can provide a valuable safety net, saving a separate copy of your code in a secure repository and providing you a way to undo major mistakes.
This is much easier than trying to collect source code from one place, database scripts from another, and bitmaps from a third - if anyone even bothered to save old database scripts.
Once a file escapes from source code control, you'll lose the ability to easily re-create the state of your project at a point in time.

Updating version numbers means editing an RC file in at least two places, locating and editing trace file function calls, and correctly determining the projects to label in the source-code control system.
However, by making a few modifications to our source code, and resorting to some old-fashioned command-line tools, we have developed a system that does a great job of protecting us from minor version snafus.
