version control wiki

2007-01-24 Thread Shahar Dag
Hi Everyone



I am not sure if I should mail this only to linux-il. I apology if you gets 
this mail twice.

 

I would like to here your advice

 

I am the administrator or the System  Software Development Laboratory (SSDL) 
in the computer science department at the Technion.

I have a RHEL 4 application server. The server can be accesses via ssh from 
everywhere (meaning outside of the Technion). We would like to add 2 additional 
services to our users: version control (including web interface)  wiki. The 
access to the new services can be from everywhere. Some of the data will have 
anonymous read access but most of it will require authentication for read  
write.

 

  1.. Can you recommend a good implementation of version control  wiki (we 
would like to use free software)
  2.. From a security point of view, what is the risk of installing the version 
control  wiki on the application server? Do you recommend to install the wiki 
on a separate machine and expose (maybe for read only) the files from the 
version control to the wiki machine? Do you have any better system architecture?
  3.. Can you recommend on raid controller for Linux. I will probably use 2-3 
SATA disks
 

Thanks

I am not aware of a version control + wiki combination (but maybe someone can
correct me?), so you will have to choose each one separately.

For version control, I would recommend Subversion. It is very similar in
its basic philosophy to CVS, but it's simply better in many ways (I'm
sure that Google can return heaps of comparisons of Subversion to every
other version control system under the sun).

For Wiki, I don't have any experiance of actually *installing* such a system,
but from a user's perspective, I'd recommend MediaWiki, because it has the
most familar syntax (at least to the hundreds of thousands of people which
contribute to Wikipedia).

I did not work with it myself, but trac is both a wiki and a project
management tool that interfaces to subversion.
I did see it used in various sites I stumbled upon, have read a bit about
it, and it seems interesting.

TRAC, only trac.

It integrates bugzilla(like)+svn+wiki in one tight nice integration. When you 
start using it, everything else just stinks.

I second that one, TRAC!

This suite is just brilliant: wiki,svn,project management, bugtask
management, extendable and pluggable, not bloated..

Go with TRAC and you'll never look back.

Subversion is a safe choice, as everybody is familiar with it and it
is well-supported. However consider arguments such as:

http://keithp.com/blog/Repository_Formats_Matter.html

As for a read-only web interface to subversion: trac is nice, 
intuitive and powerful. However I would not use it for read-write 
access. It is also limited for a single repository. 

One very intuitive, very simple and very limited interface is the one
provided by subversion itself. Take a look at 
http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/
http://svn.digium.com/svn/zaptel/

Its main atvantage is that it allows trivial downloads of files and
quick browsings of the latest versions of every branch/tag. 

In the above example, it is a handy complement to 
http://svn.digium.com/view/

Digium uses viewcvs. People somehow seem to prefer websvn. See:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-apache . I find websvn more limited.

viewcvs nd websvn were trivial to install from Debian. Trac took more
work, but maybe it has improved.

I agree on both counts. While I personally prefer CVS because I am
familiar with it, I understand that those in the know prefer
subversion. Also, the only wiki I'd recommend is MediaWiki.
