- Second that opinion. We exhausted the standard SCCS tools, then looked at
- RCS to see what all of the excitement was about. If the FSF and GNU folks

- it isn't as rigid and allows me to make mistakes once in a while. Then
- we looked at CVS, and I've never looked back at any other version control
- system...
