Funny, I never thought of myself as a "youth kid". And considering that Linus Torvalds who wrote it is 41...
I've used CVS, SVN, Perforce and Git extensively. Git is by far the best one, especially since you're not interested in setting up and running a server. The other three require a server (even if that server is actually the same laptop you're working on). You can simply initialize it directly in the directory you want to work in and your repo is right there. There's so many benefits of Git over the others I can't even begin to describe it. I even use Git to manage the CVS and SVN repositories I'm forced to work with. http://git-scm.com/ http://book.git-scm.com/ If you want to know more, feel free to contact me off-list. - Steve On Tue, Jul 12, 2011 at 7:51 PM, Rich Siegel <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tuesday, July 12, 2011, Jack Stewart <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I am a one person operation, don't contemplate multiple developers and >> simply want to keep good track of development evolution.
