There was another thread discussing Sourceforge and github which was off topic so I started a new thread.
What is a good offline source management software?  We're using SourceTree but either it needs a lot of configuration we can't figure out or it just plain sucks.

We need source management to sync changes between a few systems.  We have systems on 2 PCs possibly 3 plus 1 test server and 1 live server.  SourceTree is a free program that sort of does this but I never liked it.  1) At least half the time I push changes to the servers it's pushing everything.  I can change 1 file and have to wait for it to copy every file it's tracking which takes a long time and messes up modified timestamps.  2) It only has Hotfixes, Features, and Releases.  If I finish a Hotfix it puts the changes out to the test server and the live server.  If I finish a Feature it can put changes out to just the test server, but then I create a Release to put those changes out to the live server and it gets every Feature, so I can't use Features to put things on the test server unless they're all going live at the same time.
