TortoiseSVN - (Open Source)
TortoiseSVN is a tool designed to help in controlling the revision, version or source of a software.
TortoiseSVN is a revision / version / source control . It is files and directories that are stored in a central repository over time. This way it is possible to recover older versions of the files and examine the history of how and when the data has changed.
This application is essential for developers, designers and other project managers that are working together on a project. All "commits" and "updates" of common files are updated from the repository and TortoiseSVN allows the access and especially the return to a previous version. This client for Subversion also offers a quick view of the status of a file from overlay icons.
Some version control systems are also systems software configuration management (SCM ). These systems are specifically tailored to manage trees of source code and have many features specific to software development.
