Abstract

CVS is a a free version control system. It makes the life of a programmer a lot easier, by letting her (or him) cooperate with other programmers, safely merge code, create and merge branches, make releases, tag, and of course track code changes.

In this lecture we will review the benefits of CVS, learn to install it and work with it using the command line.
