There are a number of us going to be working on a project shortly, and I was wondering what version control system do people here use and how do they operate them?

Default version control
we just need a version control system set up and none of us have ever done it before. Any good guide for this? Can it be done on a hosting account. We actually have a hosting account with Blacknight.

You can't run SVN on a shared hosting account.

If you're all in the same physical location put in a machine just for that and you'll be fine.

As for guides - there's plenty out there

The process for setting up a svn repository isn't that difficult, all the information you need is covered in the svn book. You or someone will have to commit to being the svn guy/gal, and spend some time figuring out the best repository layout, directory laytout, access method, etc. Once everything is setup you should only every have to worry about adding new users, backups and disk space.

The biggest problem you will have is the change in development philosophy within the team, many people have never used revision control or only used limited tools. If you can can foster the 'one logical change per commit' and 'a commit shouldn't (normally) break the build' philosophies, it should greatly help in the collaboration.
