Before you go too far down the SVN route, what you're kinda suggesting is akin to saying "we've finally decided to upgrade from Windows 3.1, so we're upgrading to WindowsXP". SVN is great software, but it's not really "where it's at" any more.
You really ought to be looking at Git: either your own instance of it running (and managed by by you), or perhaps better for your situation, outsourcing the management of it to Github. Having a shared dev server is a bit of an old-school approach to things, you really ought to look at getting the developers developing on their own machines. -- Adam On 29 January 2013 23:11, Michael Christensen <mich...@strib.dk> wrote: > > Hi all! > > At my company we're once again talking about setting up source control for > our CF. > > I've been googling and reading for quite a while now and so far I've > gathered, that we first of all need a SVN server of some sort on a central > server, so that the entire team can access it. > I've looked at VisualSVN Server and managed to install it and even add a > repository. > > But now I am getting into problems, which I am hoping someone here might > be able to help me solve; > > Problem 1: We naturally already have a whole bunch of code that we'd like > to put into our repository - but I can't figure out how to do that. > Is this where I need something like TortoiseSVN?
