+1  Q: 

Any source control tool that can manage code kept on FTP Folder?

I have bought hosting space from some third party provider. Now I am thinking to use some of the space for source control management.

On searching the net I have found VSS does not support FTP folders. Is the any tool that can be used for source control over ftp?

+2  A: 

FTP is a poor choice for hosting a version-control repository. I don't know of any VCS that supports it. Use git with github or Mercurial with bitbucket.
