General Development 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 nice

We moved from CVS to Subversion at work (running on Solaris boxes).

CVS'es problems in my opinion are bad merging and conflicts. Moving to svn was really good move, no bad problems in general.

Commands are also pretty equal to CVS so moving to SVN was quite simple process.
