| Just to leave no religious debate undebated :) I'm going to have to respectfully disagree on this one ... CVS, for example, certainly has its issues, but it takes 5 minutes to get it running, there's near zero administration for it, and it has really nice support built into Eclipse. If you use extssh to connect to it, all you have to really do is cvs init a folder and you're done. With eclipse you never have to touch the commandline again. The benefits and convenience of having it running are SO worth the minimal effort to get started, in my opinion. Even on personal projects I use my own repository. You can certainly get by without SCS -- plenty of people do -- but, man, why would you do that to yourself? This is just one of those technologies that makes my life easier (and SAFER). I can't imagine not having one in place at this point.

For small companies and small projects they really are not necessary and add so much overhead that you almost have to employ an expert to get whichever one you choose working.
