Just to be curious: What is it that you don't like about CVS? In my
last company we were quite happy with it, using it for a > 1mio LOC
project. The only downside is that there are no real transactions, but
once people get used to small commits (representing a single semantic
change, not e.g. a month's work), that's not a problem in practice.
