Codeville is a distributed revision control system. It was written by Ross Cohen using Python, with some design work done by Bram Cohen. It uses an innovative merging algorithm called the "Codeville merge". A new merge algorithm called "Precise Codeville" or "pcvd" merge was under development. The project has now been abandoned.

Codeville is self hosted and also used by BitTorrent, Inc and Mosuki^{[dead link]}.
