Code management (by Talek)

Keeping track of code and all the modifications that have been done to it is an important part of maintaining any large system. I cannot overstress the importance of using a revision management system like RCS or SCCS for both the server and all important MUSHcode systems you have. The ability to easily undo a change can save you days of painful bughunting.
