Hi there,

Summary:
I'm looking for a good open source, Windows Change control program. What are
people using for there PHP projects? Is there a clear leader for this? Can
programs like MS Visual SourceSafe be used with PHP projects?

Full details:
I was looking for a way to manage the changes to my PHP coding projects. I
currently use Textpad and when I make a change to the code file I saved the
old code as the same name with the current date. As you can imagine I have
accumulated a big list of files with all different dates as my application
has evolved.

Therefore I was thinking there must be someway to manage it better and I
read about Change control which can store details such as what changed were
made to code at a particular time.

So what opensource, easy to install and get going with, Change control
programs are people using out there? If I didn't go open source, would
sourcesafe be a good option for a php project?

Any comments or pointers appreciated.

Kind regards

Dave.
