 * [http://subversion.tigris.org/ Subversion]
 * Git
 * CVS - essentially the Ur version control system. Very common still, but not recommended for new projects
   * [http://www.nongnu.org/cvs/ CVS official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_Versions_System CVS wikipedia entry]
 * Subversion - designed to replace CVS and correct some of its flaws. Similar syntax to CVS. Too much like CVS for many people's taste.
   * [http://subversion.tigris.org/ Subversion official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subversion_(software) Subversion wikipedia entry]
 * Git - A VCS designed by Linus Torvalds to meet the needs of the Linux kernel developers. Powerful but complicated.

 * [http://bazaar-vcs.org/ Bazaar]
 * [http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/ Mercurial]
 * [http://darcs.net/ Darcs]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) Git wikipedia entry]
 * Bazaar - a VCS written in Python by Canonical software (makers of Ubuntu Linux) for their needs. It's about as powerful as Git, but with much less jargon and with simpler command syntax.
   * [http://bazaar-vcs.org/ Bazaar official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bazaar_software Bazaar wikipedia entry]
 * Mercurial - VCS written in Python and C. Created when the makers of Bitkeeper (the VCS formerly used by the Linux kernel team) pulled free licenses for open source projects. The kernel team went on to create Git instead, but other projects use Mercurial.
   * [http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/ Mercurial official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercurial_(software) Mercurial wikipedia entry]
 * Darcs - designed to replace CVS and SVN. Written in Haskell and "based on a unique algebra of patches".
   * [http://darcs.net/ Darcs official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcs Darcs wikipedia entry]
 * Monotone - another VCS designed to replace CVS and SVN. But like Git, Arch, Bazaar, and Mercurial, it's designed to be decentralized. Not amazingly popular though.
   * [http://monotone.ca/ Monotone official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotone_(software) Monotone wikipedia entry]
 * Arch - a distributed VCS. Mostly superseded by Bazaar, and not under active development, but you might run across projects using it.
   * [http://www.gnu.org/software/gnu-arch/ Arch official site]
   * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_arch Arch wikipedia entry]
