SVN-Version Control System

Hi friends,
once again come up with SVN.Some of you already have known about this and some of you already have used it.but on behalf of our friends I hope to publish about this and it's trends.
I think You all know that our shared folder or naming system is fine for class projects or one-time papers. But considering software projects? There is not a chance.

Do you think the Windows source code sits in a shared folder like “Windows2007-Latest-UPDATED!!”, for anyone to edit? That every programmer just works in a different subfolder? No way.

Large, fast-changing projects with many authors need a SVN (geekspeak for “file database”) to track changes and avoid general chaos.Actually what is SVN.SVN maens Subversion.This is a version control system.
It is used to maintain current and historical versions of files such as source code, web pages, and documentation.
What are the features of good version control system?They are....

Backup and Restore
Synchronization
Short-term undo
Long-term undo
Track Changes
Track Ownership
Branching and merging

Backup and Restore
Files are saved as they are edited, and you can jump to any moment in time.

Synchronization
Lets people share files and stay up-to-date with the latest version.

Short-term undo
Throw away your changes and go back to the “last known good” version in the database.

Long-term undo
Sometimes we mess up bad. Suppose you made a change a year ago, and it had a bug. Jump back to the old version, and see what change was made that day.


Track Changes
As files are updated, you can leave messages explaining why the change happened (stored in the VCS, not the file). This makes it easy to see how a file is evolving over time, and why.

Track Ownership
A VCS tags every change with the name of the person who made it. Helpful for blamestorming giving credit.

Branching and merging
You can branch a copy of your code into a separate area and modify it in isolation (tracking changes separately). Later, you can merge your work back into the common area.

Please give your ideas.It will be helpful to me and encourage me
