The newest revision of CVS is available by anonymous ftp from star.cs.vu.nl in the directory pub/cvs. This release features multiple directories and a history mechanism. Note that this is the original shell script CVS. There is a C version of an older release by Brian Berliner, which is much faster and has some additions of its own. It is compatible with my CVS; it is also available by anonymous ftp from various sites (I can't find exactly from where right now). There should (and probably will) be some effort to make both systems meet again, but I've been doing other things lately.

The official 1.0 release of the C version of CVS can be ftp'ed from uunet.uu.net in the directory ~ftp/comp.sources.unix/volume22/cvs-berliner. Do also pick up the single patch file in that directory as well. Send mail about this version of CVS to berliner@Sun.COM. The address listed in the README file is no longer available. The distribution also contains the troff/pic/tbl source to the paper I presented at the Winter 1990 USENIX conference on CVS.

I'm sure this has been discussed before and I just missed it, so could someone please e-mail me a description of what CVS is? I believe that it some outer layer for RCS and it may be just what I'm looking for. BTW, what I want is a system to manage moving code back and forth between "production control" and "development control" environments.
