Having been forced to live with github for some time now without concerns as to it's problems, I've been using Hg locally with hggit as an interface. thg provides a very friendly cross platform GUI interface and I have most of the facilities that exist still for CVS on Eclipse via MercurialEclipse, but in all of this the one thing that has been lost is the very tidy way that CVS provided support for modular code suites. sub-repos are not popular and don't replace the mechanisms that were available where you select a sub-set of code modules for a particular job. Both Git and Hg seem to assume that using modular code is the wrong way of working and that everything should be in the one repository :( -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
