newbie question, the sequel

[Alex Snow]

Hi Rob:
CVS is the "Concurrent version system".  It is used by developers of
open-source software to track there software.  A developer "Checks Out" a
piece of software from CVS, Makes his changes, and checks it in again.  The
CVS will update all files on the server that the developer changed.  It's a
really cool system and It helps the developers stay current on the latest
modifications to the code.

Hope this helps,
Alex Snow

This one shouldn't be hard, but haven't found the answer in any docs
I've read.  What is CVS and what do it do?
