Hi Karthik,
I suggest you look into:
* Subversion (SVN)
* CVS
* the command 'diff' (man diff)
* the command 'rsync' (man rsync)
* more...
On the face of it, these may appear like bare-bone, command-line
untilities to you. Yet, that is only a subset of the wealth of mechanisms
that exists at the lower level of GNU/Linux (remember scriptability and
compartmentalisation for abstraction). If you search sourceforge.net and
freshmeat.net, you will find many graphical user interfaces and front
ends. There is a true abundance of them, so I will not hunt for links. Get
yourself some GUI that serves you in the same way as Beyond Compare.
Best wishes and good luck,
Roy
