The Digital Archiving and Retrieval Tool (DART) client is an open-source client application with the purpose of automatically versioning and archiving files and metadata by communicating with the DART server. The current version is 1.0.0.0. Employing a version control system, the DART client offers an alternative to popular revision control applications such as Subversion and CVS.
