Last week I encountered a problem with the source control software we use at Liones. The locks on some files became corrupted, which caused that I couldn’t delete those files. This problem (it is solved now btw) made me realize again that a working source control software is the foundation of any software development company.

My preferred source control software is Subversion, simply because it is reliable, fool proof and widely used. There are plenty of others available. It doesn’t really matter which one you pick as long as it is reliable!
