Ok, so the CVS I use currently is home made (by me). Looking for something opensource (or free) that allows me to upload documents and does version control on them. Also, I need a bug tracking system (nothing fancy, just a this is the bug, this is the fix). Also, it has to be web accessable (as the people I work with currently upload their changes to the web), so no win-only stuff pls).
Any thoughts?
I tried owl intranet, which is 'ok' for basic stuff, but I want something that is more supported by a larger community. I have tried googling a few things, bug can't find demos (without having to install myself and waste the time). What do you guys use?
Subversion + Trac. Can't beat it. Unfortunately I'm pretty sure Subversion is "Linux-only", but there are companies who offer Subversion + Trac hosting for very moderate fees, if you don't have a spare server. If you do, I recommend getting SME-Server, it has contribs for both Subversion and Trac and is ridiculously easy to setup and configure.

Nope, you can get the server running on Windows with some work. Just need to really go over the documentation out there.
Subversion is available for windows as well.. and there is something called ( I think ) tortoise shell or something... it hooks into file explorer giving you access to subversion so you can do everthing you need from there ( eg.. get, checkin, compare etc ).
Yup. I currently have a Windows SVN Server running. You just get the install from here:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=91Then you just install it and fiddle around with the settings, start up a service with your repositories, create accounts, etc.
Then you can use TortoiseSVN as a shell integration for SVN access, it works really well (unless you have a special themed version of Windows XP, as the graphical add-ons won't work), download it here:
http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads SVN all the way, as someone said it can be run on windows with no problems at all. Personally I wouldn't use it without tortoise though, that makes it much much cleaner to use.
Personally I have it running on a hacked nslu2 instead (tiny little linux device which shares USB HD drives on a network, which I got for < £50).
But I have had it running nicely on windows for someone else.
