    Use cvs.

    Use rcs/sccs and nfs.

    Use rcs/sccs and ssh... Keep the true sources in exactly one rcs/sccs
    repository and only transfer checked out sources between working
    directories and/or machines. Merge changes into rcs in the usual way
    (e.g. scp to A then ssh to A and check/merge the changes).
