SVN
SVN Source Code Manager, Family Dollar has implemented SVN and about sixty percent of projects within the organization currently uses this repository to maintain source code for object-oriented applications. However, the remaining forty percent of source code within the organization cannot use SVN because the code is for non-object-oriented applications ; hence a single file, not a project needs to be checked in and out of the repository. So my question is: Are you aware of a client that could be used to checkout and checkin a single file to the SVN repository and maintain the version number of the source code that is checked in? If not, do you know if SVN has the single file checkout and checkin feature?

The normal approach would be to check out a subversion (or git, or whatever) working copy and provide a synchronization wrapper to apply changes, or to check local changes back in as needed. I did this years ago for DNS source control, described at http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2012-05/0043.shtml. I'm not sure I have a copy of the tools lying around anymore.
single file version control - was: SVN

If not, do you know if SVN has the single file checkout and checkin feature? Apache Subversion supports serializing changes to binary files will all standard clients. It is called "locking", e.g. attaching svn:needs-lock properties to the files, and acquiring locks to serialize access.
