+CVS is a version control system, which allows you to keep old versions
+of files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why
+changes occurred, etc., like RCS or SCCS. It handles multiple
+developers, multiple directories, triggers to enable/log/control
+various operations, and can work over a wide area network.
