    tla, Subversion, arch, or any of the other CVS "replacements". We are rapidly approaching the point where we better start checking code in somewhere and the only thing I know is CVS.

    For every annoying gentoo user, are three even more annoying anti-gentoo crybabies. Take Yosh from #Gimp for example.

      Check out this very recent Slashdot thread. Subversion seems to be a very popular choice, and its availability on many platforms doesn't hurt either.

    I'll start and say that the article is well written. But if your developers are not able to access kde, this wom't help much. I am running a site with 8 repositories each with mulitple modules and different levels of users on different windows and unix's/linux. The best client I found was smartCVS. The latest beta has great diff, mergs and conflict tool built in. Beats tha pant's off WinCVS and tortoise. It also presents operations so that non-technical users can easily learn the basics.

  4. CVS? by nickos · · Score: 4, Informative

    What are they doing teaching people how to use CVS? Don't they know that Subversion 1.0 finally came out today?

    Look here

    Subversion is so obviously the way to go - it's CVS with all of its limitations removed.
