The Emacs editor automatically recognizes when you are
editing a file which is being kept track of (``under'') version
control, and provides an interface to the version control
commands so that you have to learn only a few Emacs commands
(most starting with ``C-x v'') in order to do version control.
The Emacs manual contains documentation in the version
control node. Many developers swear by this capability, and
if Emacs is your favorite editor, you may quickly become
addicted to it yourself.
