Re: Portable Revision Control Server (using Subversion)
Our team used SVN for source control last year during the build season. We were using Google code for the central repository. But every once in a while we didn't have internet access at the school. This was the biggest problem with Source control we had.

When we went to GSR, we ended up switching to Mercurial. With Mercurial everyone has a copy of the repository so you don't need an internet connection. When we wanted to share changes we had a copy of the repository on a flash drive, and would just share the flash drive and update our repository with the one on the flashdrive. Mercurial also makes merging changes much easier than SVN.
