copied!<p>One of the most used / known revision control system is probably <a href="http://subversion.tigris.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Subversion</a> (SVN)</p> <p>I use it everyday on both Linux and Windows <em>(for both personnal and professionnal projects)</em>, both in CLI and with graphical tools.</p> <ul> <li>Windows : I often use <a href="http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">TortoiseSVN</a></li> <li>Windows/Linux : I generally work with Eclipse, and its <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Subversive</a> plugin</li> <li>Windows/Linux : the "svn" command in CLI is great too, especially when you want to use some scripts to automate struff.</li> </ul> <p>Note that I never had to compile anything for SVN to work <em>(on Windows, using TortoiseSVN is OK ; on Linux Ubuntu, the packages bundled by Ubuntu are OK too)</em></p> <p><br> For hosting, as SVN is used by lots of projects, you have lots of possibility, especially for open source projects.</p> <ul> <li>For instance, <a href="http://code.google.com/hosting/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Google code</a> allows you to use SVN to host your projects</li> <li>Same for <a href="http://sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SourceForge</a> (<a href="http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/wiki/Subversion" rel="nofollow noreferrer">see</a>), if I remember correctly.</li> <li>You have other possibilities, of course, like, for instance, <a href="http://www.assembla.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Assembla</a></li> </ul> <p><br> If you want something a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_revision_control" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Distributed revision control</a> software, you can take a look at tools like <a href="http://bazaar-vcs.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Bazaar</a>, <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Mercurial</a>, and/or <a href="http://git-scm.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Git</a>. Each one of those is used by some big projects <em>(well, at least for Bazaar (MySQL uses it, I think) and Git (Linux Kernel uses it))</em>.</p> <p>I've used Bazaar on both Linux and Windows, but only in command-line ; never had any problem with it. I know there are graphical tools for both Linux and Windows, but never used those much, so I can't really say more.</p> <p><br> Still, if you don't need a distributed system, I would go with Subversion, with absolutly no hesitation.</p>
