At the risk of sounding like an echo: I use CVS both for my private/personal projects as well as my professional ones. I have a PSERVER set up on my home box and for anything that I write here at work that isn't in a CVS respository on a company machine I create a repository for it on my home box and store it there.

Doing so buys me a couple of things:

1. I now have a backup of my work "offsite" since I don't trust the backups here
2. When I want to work from home I have the same code available to me at home as I do at work</li
3. Don't have to sneaker net my changes.

Enen the pages that make up my web site are under CVS control so I can track changes

I have recently convince my team mates here to start using CVS as well. It took some doing, but I did it.
