DESCR revision 1.1 1 1.1 jwise This contains man page groff source for the CVS revision control system.
2 1.1 jwise CVS is a version control system which allows you to keep old versions of
3 1.1 jwise files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes
4 1.1 jwise occurred, etc., like RCS or SCCS. Unlike the simpler systems, CVS does
5 1.1 jwise not just operate on one file at a time or one directory at a time, but
6 1.1 jwise operates on hierarchical collections of directories consisting of version
7 1.1 jwise controlled files. CVS helps to manage releases and to control the
8 1.1 jwise concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. CVS allows
9 1.1 jwise triggers to enable/log/control various operations and works well over a
10 1.1 jwise wide area network (see man pages).
