| Jul 6, 2016 at 22:18 | comment | added | ctrl-alt-delor | As @grochmal says, however it is called a “revision control system”. Many many people mix up version control, revision control, and configuration control, they are all different and closely related. | |

| Jul 6, 2016 at 22:16 | comment | added | Wildcard | I second @grochmal. Just learn a VCS (version control system). RCS is fairly widespread (may already be installed) but ancient and kind of clunky. Git is extremely available, fast, efficient, and powerful. | |

| Jul 6, 2016 at 22:06 | comment | added | grochmal | You're after a code versioning system, i.e. git, mercurial, svn, cvs. The purpose of a CVS is exactly that: ensure that you know what changes have been made, when, and by whom. | |
