TortoiseCVS
A CVS tool for Microsoft Windows was released under the GNU GPL.Tortoise CVS is not included in the windows shell by adding in the menu of the file explorer which means it does not run in its own. However, it adds icons onto files and directories which are mainly controlled by CVS which gives additional knowledge to users without running a full-scale stand-alone application. This was started by Francis Irving in the year 2000.
