In the field of software development, the '''Concurrent Versions System''' ('''CVS'''), also known as the '''Concurrent Versioning System''', provides a version control system based on open-source code. Version control system software keeps track of all work and all changes in a set of files, and allows several developers (potentially widely separated in space and/or time) to collaborate. This means that the newest stuff, which are still in development, are available in CVS before they do in the stable release. CVS has become popular in the open source software world and is released under the [[GNU General Public License]].
The '''Concurrent Versions System''' ('''CVS''') has been used by the [[FlightGear]] project as version control system, for almost 10 years.

The Concurrent Versions System (CVS) has been used by the FlightGear project as version control system, for almost 10 years.

After a hardware failure in May 2010, the CVS servers of the FlightGear source and data repository were replaced by Git. Every reference to CVS can be considered as out-of-date and should be replaced with a correct Git reference.
