On Monday, the Subversion project is scheduled to release version 1.0 of their version control system, under development for several years now. Subversion was intended from its inception as the CVS replacement and it comes with many important features previously found only on commercial VCS like Perforce. It was designed for better remote performance, and it is multi-platform with a GUI/CLI front-end.

Subversion is very similar in use to cvs, but a lot more powerful. If you develop on Windows, there is a great set of programs that integrate Subversion right into the Explorer shell. It is so easy to use that way you will wonder why you have not been keeping everything in a VCS!
