Hi Nick,
Continuus does use RCS as a backed storage format for archive files, but
this is where similarities end. First of all, there is no branching inside
these RCS files, all metadata is kept separately, in Informix. Also, only
text files are kept with deltas in RCS files, all versions of binary files
are kept as separate files.
However, you should be able to migrate CVS repository to Continuus. It is
possible to feed Continuus migration process with ,v RCS files, and it will
preserve revisions numbers during the migration. Preserving label
information, submission comments and magic branches is another story, and I
am not ready to describe it now for I do not know the details. Ask me in a
couple of months...
Eugene.
