btw, reading https://sourceforge.net/blog/sourceforge-attack-full-report/, it seems that sf has plans to turn off CVS on the long run: "We are also considering the end-of-life of the CVS service and hope to have user support in migrating CVS users to Subversion in coming months. Subversion generally provides parity to CVS commands, and many of our users have made this transition successfully in the past. - From SVN, projects can move to Git if desired." i don't know about your (burkhard's) feeling about other VCS, but CVS seems indeed a bit outdated by now. i remember transition from CVS to SVN to be very painless (unlike transition from SVN to git, which involved learning), though the memory is slowly fading away, as this has been some years now. otoh, i also remember switching back from SVN/git to CVS (mainly to generate a simple, multi-file diffs for...gmerlin) to be a real pain. anyhow, if switching to one of these VCS i would recommend: - - to use git, if you intend to keep gmerlin evolving e.g. i really love the possibility to do offline commits (e.g. working at home, on the train,...) branching/merging is really a piece of cake, e.g. adding new features ca first be developed/tested on a separate branch and then simply be merged into the stable main-line (that's all possible with CVS as well; but git helps a lot) - - to use SVN, if future development does not need any of the above. e.g. if you only intend to fix the odd bug now and then, then it's probably an overkill to use git. if you are always online when developing, then you don't need offline commits. most important: if you never worked with git, then it will take some time to get used to it. masdr IOhannes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1Y7x4ACgkQkX2Xpv6ydvTxKgCfZ9wWFad0aDxmte7W4jFG32LV kzYAn0oWW53D0MHQTkNOF2wxgSfCEzKK =2mkr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
