CVS:

CVS is good.  David Buttler set up a repository for DISL group members in /net/hp72/projects/CVS. This is a much better version control system than RCS, and since it is on a CNS managed drive it will be automatically backed up.  Please use this repository for your projects (both code and web pages). 

Tools:
command line: cvs
GUI: Eclipse (also known as a decent IDE for such languages as Java, C, C++, C#, AspectJ, etc.)

For documentation for the command line, see the man pages or check out

Remote Access to a CVS repository

contributed by Dan Rocco
Remote CVS checkout (I'm assuming other cvs commands work similarly):
   export CVS_RSH=ssh
   cvs -d:ext:username@host.domain/path/to/CVS co module
