Alternatives are always good. Just be careful that you 
do not create something so different it can not 
interact with cvs. If you do then you have created \"MSS 
- Source Safe) which as far as I\'m concerned has some 
really good features, but is so \"microsofted\" it will 
not work with anything else.

Just make sure that someone could still update from and 
to a cvs base on a server.

Just my opinion.
