There are some tools to keep versions of the software and they do just that.

Some of them are:

Perforce SCM, http://www.perforce.com/ (best that I know)

Subversion, http://subversion.tigris.org/

CVS, http://www.cvshome.org/

Microsoft's SourceSafe, http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/previous/ssafe/

And you probably get couple of other products from others too.
