Source Code Control Systems

What source code control systems does everyone use?

I just keep source organized in a directory on my computer, but our department is growing past the limitations of that.

I heard Visual Source Safe is buggy. Anyone have any advice or experiences to share?

At work we use Visual Source Safe....
At home I'm planning to use Source Gear's Vault.

Other: none

I use Subversion! Its sort of an successor to cvs and very powerfull.
Subversion

I use SourceSafe at school, CVS at work, and Directories at home. I also voted for other cuz I didn't want it to feel left out =\

Directories.

Other: PVCS

Only recommended if you get paid by the hour. It is somewhat slower than continental drift :rolleyes:

Every now and again, I poke my head up over the cubicle farm and shout:
"anyone working on the sales program?" Regardless of answers, I'll open and
save over any versions that currently exist. They should be more careful.

I second this. We use subversion at work, and it's done everything I've wanted it to do and more.

We also use a customised checking in database created in Lotus Notes :sick:
It works surprisingly well though!

There are more users of Visual Source Safe than I thought. I think I'll give it a try.

I once had a long term contract with one of the major auto manufacturing companies here in Detroit, and their corporate standard was PVCS.

At the time, I was being paid by the hour, and you pretty much nailed it. :D

Know why? Because it comes with Visual Studio. That's how we came to use it. We looked at a number of things and ultimately said "heck, it comes with Visual Studio, it's from Microsoft so we know it'll integrate... and we don't have to shell out any additional money. Use it!"

I had a few problems with VSS, prolly because I didn't know how to use it properly. Being the only developer here, I just use folders to save versions. I zip up everything in the folder, and move it to a zip folder.

i third this. its much better than CVS. and those arguments about high cost can't be used against it, since its OSS.
