In addition to above answer : 

The process Configuration Management falls in the 2nd level (Repeatable) in CMM.

Basic purpose is to keep the central repository and maintain the historic data. Added features like are text file (code) comparison, labeling, file locking,  etc.

Hi,

Configuration management covers the processes used to control, coordinate, and track: code, requirements, documentation, problems, change requests, designs,tools/compilers/libraries/patches, changes made to them, and who makes the changes.

Configuration management is a critical process responsible for identifying, controlling, and tracking all versions of hardware, software, documentation, processes, procedures, and all other inanimate components of the information technology (IT) organization. The goal of configuration management is to ensure that only authorized components, referred to as configuration items (CIs), are used in the IT environment and that all changes to CIs are recorded and tracked throughout the component’s life cycle.
Vista, VSS,  CVS, ClearCase ....etc are the widely used Configuration Management tools.
