SVN
Posted On Sunday at at 3:08 PM by VMWhat is TortoiseSVN?
TortoiseSVN is a free open-source client software for the Subversion version control system. The TortoiseSVN manages files and directories over time. Files are stored in a central repository. The repository is like an ordinary file server, except that it remembers every change ever made to your files and directories. This allows you to recover older versions of your files and examine the history of how and when your data changed, and who changed it.
