RE: Anyone have VSS2CVS?
We *have* changed to CVS. Some of the reasons. - cross platform support (win32/unix/mac) - has all features we cared about in VSS - easy remote access - concurrent model development - easy handling of branches - easy merging - easy to write tools to co-ordinate with bug system - bugzilla - various web browser interfaces - cvsweb, bonsai - integration with build monkey - tinderbox - reliability - Handles binary files despite what Greg Wood says. Perhaps VSS has some of these features, but many developers were bitten by bugs in VSS and refused to use them. VSS became a noose around our neck. Now that we have moved to CVS, people are able to work from home, from remote locations, on their lap-top while travelling. CVS is not perfect by any means but it sure makes it very easy to automate many tasks. I didn't need to convince anyone. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Fernando Gomes Sent: Friday, October 12, 2001 12:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Anyone have VSS2CVS?
