Description : CVS (Concurrent Versions System) is a version control system that
: can record the history of your files (usually, but not always,
: source code). CVS only stores the differences between versions,
: instead of every version of every file you have ever created. CVS
: also keeps a log of who, when, and why changes occurred.
:
: CVS is very helpful for managing releases and controlling the
: concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. Instead
: of providing version control for a collection of files in a single
: directory, CVS provides version control for a hierarchical
: collection of directories consisting of revision controlled files.
: These directories and files can then be combined together to form
: a software release.
