That depends on your criteria.
What are the characteristics of your project and your team?
- How many devs?
- Distributed or centrailized?
- Conected (all on a LAN) or disconnected (WAN/VPN)?
- How much branching are you likely to do?
- Is web-based access required?
- What security requirements do you have?
- Is integration with work-item (bug) tracking important?
- Are there other tools (aside from Visual Studio) that need to integrate or
interact with version control?
- How cost sensitive are you?
My current preferred SCC solution is SourceGear Vault. It's free for use by
a single developer, and quite reasonable for larger teams. It integrates
well with Visual Studio, has excellent support for distributed/disconnected
development, and integrates with a few different issue tracking systems.
Vault uses SQL server 2000 for it's back-end, and can be used with MSDE.
