  I've moved all of my personal code from CVS to subversion several
  months ago and love it.  It fixes a ton of the problems CVS had
  (renaming files, braching/tagging times, etc).  

  Supposedly you can even setup a webdav share that people can write
  to that will increment versions on each write and put in a default
  log message.
