Greetings everyone.
So I must admit I have never used source control software before. Having said that, Team Foundation Server 2010 seems to be a good fit. However, one major problem is our Production, test and development servers are all on Windows 2003 R2 64 bit (Which is not supported).
Is there a way around this short of upgrading? Could you put TFS 2010 on its own server and connect to the 3 aforementioned servers?
I am very limited in my knowledge of TFS so any help is appreciated!!

In my opinion you would probably be better off with subversion?

You wouldn't be connecting your source control directly to your production server anyway, so that's not a problem. It just needs a server on the side that you can pull the code from in order to apply it to your databases. I wrote a chapter in the book SQL Server Team-Based Development[/url]. I show how to use two tools, Red Gate SQL Source Control (which works with TFS, Subversion, Vault & others) and Microsofts Visual Studio Database Development toolset (called Data Dude, the new version is called SSDT or SQL Server Database Tools) to deploy databases from source control. It might help you get started. The book is free to download in E-book format.
Disclosure, I work for Red Gate, but didn't when I wrote the chapters for the book. Each of these tools is very good, they just work slightly differently.
