Is it possible to use (Win)CVS as a local repository? I don't need a multi-user configuration with sharing a repository on a server (I've been using WinCVS for years in a team, and it worked fine for us), but just want to keep track of different versions of my project code locally. Anywhere some good documentation or tutorials? Or are there other options?
Yes, you can create a local CVS repository in any empty directory
on your computer by setting the CVSROOT environment variable
to that directory and running the cvs init command.
The CVS manual describes all the CVS concepts and commands.
