Managing Projects

[Shaddix]

I'm searching for something that helps managing my programming projects

at school I work at my laptop, but at home I develop at my desktop

now it would be handy if I could upload my files to a server and access them on every computer with an internet connection

I heard something like that existed, and that there also was functionalities for working in a team (multiple users that can access specific files, ability to lock files when someone is working on them,...)

does anyone know a free solution that would suit my needs?

CVS or any other version control system should work.

Dreamweaver has the locking and what not built in. You could use hosting (i sugest this rout and use hostgator.com) or set your home computer up as a server and use DynDNS

CVS is ancient and obsolete.

git - github - I personally use git, as does the Linux kernel team.

svn - google code - fairly popular, the big brother of CVS, but also one of the older revision systems.

Theres also Mecurial, Bzar, BitKeeper, and dozens of other ones. Personally, I'd downright recommend Git.
