Abstract :
The software development team is regularly faced with two major problems: access to previous software versions and simultaneous work of many programmers on the same source code at the same time. Some development teams solve these problems by using version control tools, while others opt for manual version control. This paper analyzes both approaches and compares them according to certain criteria.
