CVS Comparisons

• PRCS has separate metadata and atomic checkins. This is definately a nice feature, that we would like to add to CVS (when someone gets around to it).

• Using PRCS involves editing text files more so than CVS, which performs similar operations from the command line (most of the time). This could be a bug or a feature depending on one's point of view.

• CVS has a client/server implementation and PRCS does not.

• CVS is better at letting you work on either an entire directory tree or one portion thereof. The PRCS documentation talks about subprojects, but it doesn't have the ability to operate on a project and all its subprojects in one operation.
