[man cvs]
DESCRIPTION
       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.  Unlike the simpler systems, CVS does not just oper­
			           ate on one file at a time or one directory at a time,  but
				          operates  on  hierarchical collections of directories con­
					         sisting of version controlled files.  CVS helps to  manage
						        releases  and  to control the concurrent editing of source
							       files among multiple  authors.   CVS  allows  triggers  to
							              enable/log/control  various operations and works well over
								             a wide area network.

									            cvs keeps a single copy of the master sources.  This  copy
										           is  called  the source ``repository''; it contains all the
											          information  to  permit   extracting   previous   software
												         releases  at  any time based on either a symbolic revision
													        tag, or a date in the past.
