    Just a note -- I've used all the Windows GUI CVS clients and the only
    one I'd recommend is Tortoise CVS. It's the no-contest *** of the walk
    in my opinion.

    http://www.tortoisecvs.org

    It doesn't come with a difference editor, but you can plug one in. I
    highly recommend Araxis Merge. It's not free, but it's worth paying for.
    I've never seen its equal.
