There is no integration with the project manager. But remember, Subversion works the opposite of programs like VSS, which forces you to get exclusive access to a file before you can edit it. Subversion doesn't make you go through all that; it assumes that two developers won't be working on the same file at the same time. If conflicts do happen, it will merge the files if possible (assuming that they are text files), or mark the file as in conflict so that you can resolve it manually.
And if you use TortoiseSVN <http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/>, which hooks subversion into Windows' own file manager, you'll never miss the project manager integration. Add to this Paul McNett's scX <http://paulmcnett.com/scX.php> which is also in the leafe.com file section <ftp://leafe.com/scX-1.28.25.zip>. You use scX to automatically convert the various foxpro binary formats (pjx, scx, frx, and friends) to text format that can be checked into svn. Having my stuff in svn saved my butt a few days back when I accidently screwed something up and couldn't remember how to put it back the old way. dt -- Dave Thayer Denver, CO _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
