copied!<p>First off, you might benefit from this recently published paper in the ACM Queue: <br> <a href="http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1595636" rel="noreferrer"><strong>Making Sense of Revision-control Systems</strong></a></p> <p>I'll outline the two which I know the most about, others can tell you about the rest. </p> <p><strong>SVN:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Probably the best windows support out of all modern open source SCM's</li> <li>Simple work flow similar to most standard SCM's</li> <li>Many free open source hosts: <a href="http://code.google.com/projecthosting/" rel="noreferrer">http://code.google.com/projecthosting</a>, <a href="http://unfuddle.com/about/tour/plans" rel="noreferrer">http://unfuddle.com/about/tour/plans</a> </li> <li><a href="http://www.svnhostingcomparison.com/" rel="noreferrer">http://www.svnhostingcomparison.com/</a></li> <li>Many good clients. Tortis SVN, Subclipse, straight cli and many more. </li> </ul> <p><strong>GIT:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Extremely powerful SCM</li> <li>Full source history in every checkout of the source tree. </li> <li>Not the greatest windows support, but making great strides of improvement currently. <a href="http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/" rel="noreferrer">http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/</a></li> <li>Many free hosts: <a href="http://repo.or.cz" rel="noreferrer">github</a>, <a href="http://repo.or.cz" rel="noreferrer">repo.or.cz</a></li> <li>The current "cool kid" on the bock. </li> </ul> <p>It sounds like you might just want to go with svn. It sounds like you just want to have stuff under version control, this way you won't have to worry about the learning curve associated with GIT. </p> <p>Others to look at, but I didn't detail because of general lack of windows tools: Mercurial, Darcs, Bazaar. If you do check out mercurial you can use <a href="http://bitbucket.org" rel="noreferrer">bitbucket</a> and <a href="http://code.google.com/projecthosting/" rel="noreferrer">google code</a> as a host. </p>
