Alternative to SourceSafe in a Commercial Environment?

Posted by Cliff on from the changing-your-revision-control-software dept.

Jim the Bad asks: "After Visual SourceSafe inexplicably corrupted itself one time too many, my Boss has asked me to evaluate the alternatives. This site lists some alternatives, and SourceForge is a commercial product that might suit. Are there any more? It must be rock solid, run on Windows and it must be possible to migrate existing SourceSafe databases. Developer Studio integration is also very desirable. What product would you recommend?"

    Well make up your mind and pick one.

    I know, I know. But someone was bound to say it.

    ...relational database such as Firebird...

    I'm confused. I thought Firebird was a browser? How can two unrelated products have the same name? ;>)
