Hi everyone,

I'm a little more than 1/4 of the way through my Intro. to Comp. Prog. class
and we're starting to get into slightly more complicated assignments. (Well
maybe we're not quite there yet.)

Anyway, I'd like to have a way for my programming teams to collaborate on
their code. Has anyone tried teaching beginning comp. prog. students to use
CVS? It would be easy enough to drag out an old server and set it up for
this purpose.

Any hints or experiences that anyone would share?

-Tim
