Configuration Management typically referred to as CRM for Configuration and Release Management. I think Linux is pretty high profile and then there are approximately 100,000 (count 'em) project on SourceForge that all use CVS. I think it's safe to say it's the #1 VCS in the world. The list of who doesn't use it would include a lot of Microsoft shops using VSS. Oracle and IBM have their own VCS products but probably use CVS a lot. Consider that Eclipse has build-in support for CVS as does JBuilder and NetBeans and others. JBoss and other appservers use CVS. That's not coincidental.
Fact is, CVS is so ubiquitous that somebody with some bank out to fund a major overhaul. BTW, Subversion adds a few features but some of them have bugs that have been open since '02 (e.g., rename directory) and they don't support the connectivity options of CVS, to name a few things wrong with it. We really need a CVS extension. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rhino Sent: Thursday, June 02, 2005 5:37 AM To: McKinnon, Claire; [email protected] Subject: Re: Testimonies What is "cm"?
