Saving different versions during the development phase , how?

Lets say I wrote som code that is partly finished and I intend to add more and maybe change what I have at the moment. Then I would like to save my project at this moment so I can get back to this version later. What could I do Should I save my project under a new name Or is there some built in features for having different versions of a program

    Hi,

    Best method i use is, right click on the project folder and click add to ZIP/RAR what ever you have and name new zip file as current date. When ever you need it back just right click unzip and open.

    Normally, a version management system like CVS, Visual SourceSafe, Subversion is used for such a purpose.

    And they all cost a lot of money I suppose

    Some of them are open source software. For instance, CVS is distributed under GPL.
