I'll check that out, too, Luis. Thanks! I'm currently reading up on mercurial, and it is very enlightening. I'll admit that, being a .net developer by trade, I've not really been privy to some of the stuff going on in scm, mostly stuck at a company still using sourcesafe. Please no comments about how it isn't really scm. :) I'm definitely getting a mind-opener reading the mercurial site.
My basic need right now is to be able to keep history of my project (Coupon Tracker: http://www.coreyhaines.com/coreysramblings/2008/02/03/TrackingEntertainmentBookSavingsInRailsPartIIIWhyArentYouUsingIt.aspx). While I'm learning RoR, I want to be able to roll back to a previous version if I mess things up too much. :) I'm starting to add some AJAX stuff to the site, and I want to make sure that I can revert when I misuse it. :) Thanks again to everyone for their input. -Corey On Feb 3, 2008 12:23 PM, Luis Lavena <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Feb 3, 2008 3:13 PM, Corey Haines <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thanks to everyone for their comments, as well as the lack of SCM > fighting. > > :) Being on vista, it appears that my choices are a bit limited. > > > > I don't know about Vista, but being using bzr (http://bazaar-vcs.org/) > for 8 months and the shift from tradition centralized repositories > (svn, cvs) to distributed was a joy. > > It also doesn't hide you under the same checkout all your branches (to > avoid costly disk space?) > > Anyway, not starting the fight... not now, but I leave you with a link > comparing Bzr to Git [1] and Bzr to Hg (Mercurial) [2] > > On a side note, I'll like to point that it allow you push branches to > websites using just dumb protocols like ftp and http for retrieving, > with is something sueful for someone with lack ssh or git server > capability on their hosting providers. > > I'm using it to push new development of One-Click Ruby Installer [3] > > [1] http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrVsGit > [2] http://bazaar-vcs.org/BzrVsHg > [3] > http://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.ruby/browse_thread/thread/1e2f1b9a3d611e3b > > -- > Luis Lavena > Multimedia systems > - > A common mistake that people make when trying to design > something completely foolproof is to underestimate > the ingenuity of complete fools. > Douglas Adams > _______________________________________________ > rspec-users mailing list > rspec-users@rubyforge.org > http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users > -- http://www.coreyhaines.com The Internet's Premiere source of information about Corey Haines
