I moved to a new company where they use CVS as source code control, but I found it very difficult to use and confusing. Every time I need to update the code on the server I have to spend at least an hours with people there to validate all the changes. :mad: :mad: :mad:
Try SmartCVS IMO the easiest by far! And free IIRC! top secret

Uhm.. what do you mean validate? When you update, one of the three things happen: 1) Nothing 2) Patch 3) Conflict If 1), fine. If 2) also fine - someone else's changes were merged with your tree. If you don't want that to happen, then why update anyway? If 3), well then you and your colleagues need to communicate better. And you have to resolve the conflict as well. For not too complex revisioning, CVS is rock solid. And has been for a very long time. -- Din mamma.

Ditto. We use it CVS/WinCVS to ship several concurrently developed versions of a fairly large xplatform codebase. /ravi My new year's resolution: 2048 x 1536 Home | Articles | Freeware | Music ravib@ravib.com

you're right, conflict, it took us two hours to resolve it I found VSS much more simpler than CVS

fnaddaf wrote: I found VSS much more simpler than CVS Ah yes, but VSS bugs out sometimes and doesn't lock files properly. Then you're into a shitload of trouble, because the conflicts won't be noticed... Imagine two versions diverging on two computers, and only one version is in VSS at one point in time. Been there, done that, NOT doing it again. You do NOT want that to happen. Trust me. :) -- Din mamma.
