I used it on a team-programmed web site project back when I worked for a
consulting firm and it was adequate. If you decide to go with it
instead of Subversion (which other people have recommended and with
which I have no experience), note that the book "Open Source Development

appears that the whole book is there) is available under a Free license
at <http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/>.
