Agreed! Here's an interesting article outlining some design patterns for branching in code repositories. http://www.cmcrossroads.com/bradapp/acme/branching/streamed-lines.html. For those getting started with version control, it's good to note that there's a lot of possible "right" ways to build a process around version control. I'll suggest that there's only one *wrong* way to do version control -- and that's ignoring it. Whether it's VisualSourceSafe 6.0 (argh!) for a single developer or putting in some high-end commercial source control tool or sticking with the tried and true CVS and SVN, or getting crazy with open source version control like darcs, you should get immediate value to your development by being able to follow the state of your code repository over time, which is all version control is really for. > > -- > Tom Chiverton > Helping to competently aggregate viral CEOs > on: http://thefalken.livejournal.com > > **************************************************** > > This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP. > > Halliwells LLP is a limited liability partnership registered in England and > Wales under registered number OC307980 whose registered office address is at > St James's Court Brown Street Manchester M2 2JF.
