Or keep using CVS if you do not need any of the more modern
features and therefore see no reason to switch tools.

Subversion almost "works the same" as CVS, even though it adds

successor" of CVS. Git is often said to be "too different" and
"surprising" in what its subcommands do. :-)

	% cvs init
