Using Git, CSV or subversion is super easy with Eclipse. You can maintain a local repo that tracks the changes you do, and also allows you to synch with a remote repo when you want to push a final code change.
I like Git and Github a lot since it is free and easy to collaborate with, and I prefer to use EGit in Eclipse, it is simple to set up, and can have you up and running with a local repo in a few minutes. It is a good Idea to test locally before trying to work with a large repo, you do need to understand a few key terms before doing the big stuff, but it is well documented. http://www.eclipse.org/egit/ I also use TortoiseGit, which is a standalone gui for GIT. Tortoise also makes standalone gui's for Subversion and CSV. http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ On Mon, Mar 15, 2010 at 9:47 AM, Greg Luce <luce...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I recommend setting up a free account with unfuddle.com and in 10 minutes > you'll have your codebase in SVN. > -- > Greg Luce > Luce Consulting Services, Inc. > www.luceconsulting.net > (863) 273-0289 > > > > > On Sun, Mar 14, 2010 at 11:31 PM, Barney Boisvert <bboisv...@gmail.com > >wrote: > > > > > Version control software.
