We are using Subversion as our source control system. The Subversion Book is a great reference.

The eXe repository is located at http://exelearning.org/svn/exe1/trunk. Anyone may view the source code, but permission to commit changes has been restricted to the eXe team members (Contact <exe AT exelearning DOT org> to be granted access).
