Good resources for versioning

I have a number of Windows servers at work that are used for staging web sites for clients while they are being created.

I wanted to start using versioning on them so that when we work with outside vendors on a project, if/when they overwrite my work, I'd like to be able to go back and get the version before.

My question is that I think I'm not looking for the correct terms in searching for information, but what kind of resources are there to learn how to install the software for versioning or a site to help me get开发者_StackOverflow started.

Any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Since your development workflow can be decentralized (as in "there isn't always one central repository), DVCS tools, with their common tasks described here) can be more adapted.

• Git-Scm
• Mercurial (see HgInit.com for a very good tutorial like the kind you are after)
• Plastic SCM (which has a DVCS nature)
