[...big snip on advantages of CVS]
Yeah, (unlike Linus Torvalds) I agree that a versioning system, such as
CVS is great, and it can come handy at many times. But you see Hossein,
you do have a CVS server in which your repository is hosted, and I
guess you also have a high speed internet connection, because usually
tranfering megabytes of data with dialup is no fun. Your explanation
shows how usefull controll system is, even for users (not just
programmers).
But stiil most of us, like me, don't have that CVS server and that high
speed internet connection. So although many users like to get rid of
CDs and managing multiple versions of the same document and backing up
files and so on, still we just can't do it, and we have to cope living
without CVS ;-(
