I'm wondering if anybody knows of a version control software program that
may fit my needs.

Basically, I'm looking for something that runs locally, not on the live
site, that I can edit the files on the dev computer, and store old versions
on the dev computer, and then just publish off of the local onto the live
site whenever I need to. [...]
A couple of very easy-to-use ones are Subversion and CVS. Both are very
easy to use from a shell / command line, and both have nice GUIs
available for both Windows and *nix. Many editors and IDEs will work
with CVS directly, and some with Subversion.

While I currently use CVS, I probably wouldn't choose it going forward
since Subversion solves many of the problems it has... as does GIT if I
recall. I'm still using CVS because it works for me and I haven't
allocated the time yet to switch over.

Yeah I agree here. I wouldn't use CVS on any new project.

For me the choices are simple: Git or SVN. Which one would depend on the kind of project (binary data?) and the team size/independent working requirements.
