Code Repository

[Nick Schneider]

We are looking into implementing some sort of a code repository and were wondering if anyone else out there is using one and what that might be.  We would like to have the ability to track changes, track who checked out and checked in code and what changes they made.  Would also like some sort of basic security on the code repository.  Does anyone have any suggestions.

Solaris 5.8

Cloverleaf 5.2.1

Nick,

We use MS Visual Source Safe for that functionality. It works great, a little expensive though. We can review two different dates of code and quickly determine what changes took place, etc.

Hope that helps,

Brian

Nick,

I’d Google “Visual Source Safe” (omit the ticks) to see if that will work for you.  Also, you might look into NGSource 3 at: http://www.ngsource.com

Nick.

We currenlty use CVS (we used RCS before a server migration) and this allows us to keep track of all the code and more usefully, we can display the revisions on the code that we use and check that it is the correct revision.

Note that we perform almost all of our translations in TCL
