What
is CVS?
- Client/server system that controls the Software
revision.
- Vital component of Source Configuration Management
(SCM).
- Keeps track of all the works and changes in a set of
files.
How
CVS works?
- CVS Server Software stores the current version of
Project and it's history.
- With CVS Client, developers connect to server ->
Check Out the files -> Implement the required changes -> Check In
the updated version.

Client Components integrated along with this suite. Again repeat We gonna walk

wait for a while.
Step 4: We are done with the CVS

treated as the CVS Repository. Hit OK.
