uh? why sudo? it's easier sometimes to log in with su, and then do it.

What source code control systems have people had luck with besides Visual Sourcesafe from Microsoft? I am wanting to start using one and actually hope to do it where code can be shared across the web. Are any of you aware of free tools for this type of activity?

Do you mean tools like svn, cvs and git?
If so svn seems good, you can keep old revisions, create diffs easy, pull the latest sources easily and check in changes.
Its pretty easy from a linux console:
sudo apt-get install svn
svn co url
svn up
svn diff > pipefile...

etc.
You will have to set up your server first though.
If you want a graphical client, I'm sure they exist...
