I would caution against this. The added difficulty of setting up a cvs
or svn repository is minimal (add an hour at most up front). Even with
one developer, the benefit of being able to test out changes and if
necessary revert back to prior versions is huge.

It also provides a nice backup mechanism in case of hardware failures if
you keep the repository on a different hard drive than the code in
development. It can also be helpful for one developer if he or she is
developing on more than one machine.
