Software control program

Question

I'm a college student majoring in computer engineering. I'm doing a c++ project in my comp sci class with 3 other people. Instead of zipping up our code and sending it to each other, what's the best software I can use for version control. I live on campus so setting up a server might be a problem (have to use university wifi). I've heard git and svn but I'm not super computer savy so command line things might confuse me.

Answer 1

Use a free online source repository, such as unfuddle.com, github.com, beanstalk.com. It'll let you use either SVN or git. Some force you to have an open source project (github), others let you make it private. Also, both of these programs (SVN or git) have GUI front-ends, you don't have to use the command line.
