Just to put in a good word for subversion. Here is a bit of their mentality. [snapped from http://www.red-bean.com/sussman/svn-anti-fud.html] When Subversion hit "alpha" it was already being used by dozens of private developers and shops for real work. Any other project probably would have called the product "1.0" at that point, but we deliberately decided to delay that label as long as possible. Because we're talking managing people's irreplaceable data, the project was extremely conservative about labeling something 1.0. We were aware that many people were waiting for that label before using Subversion, and had very specific expectations about the meaning of that label. So we stuck to that standard. All it takes is one high-profile case of data loss to destroy an SCM's reputation. [/snap] 1.0 was released today (Monday). -----Original Message----- From: Brian Hook [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: den 24 februari 2004 01:22 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [GD-General] Re: file synchronization software > We are using a source management system (CVS, because we want to > give SVN some time to mature), but our artists don't work this way. What specifically about SVN right now do you feel makes it not mature? I've switched over to it, and it absolutely cleans the floor with CVS.
