Source code control systems are very difficult things to write (at least correctly) such that they help rather than hinder the development process. The only one that I tell anyone to use is Perforce, which costs money, but costs money for a reason and if you are a bank, you should be willing to spend a reasonable amount of money securing the banking software ;-) Don't even think about things that require Oracle databases and administrators.
Of the free ones available, only SVN is really any good and that is not so hot compared to perforce. While working on various contracts I have been forced to use a number of free SCCS systems including SVN (Ok for free), mercurial (abysmal), git (meah) and so on. In the case of mercurial, it once prevented anyone from checking anything in for days while the databases were sorted out; don't go near it - anything written in Python... well my views on functional/dynamic languages are well known. I do not really know anything about your options 1 and 2 below (though I think that I might have actually written some C code for 2 to work :-), and though I know and like the people at Sofgen, I think you would have to do some strenuous testing and verification of anything other than SVN or perforce. So, basically my advice is to do yourselves a favor and just go buy perforce. Please tell them that I sent you and that they should therefore give me a free upgrade ;-) Jim > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf > Of Despina > Sent: Tuesday, May 04, 2010 6:10 AM > To: jBASE > Subject: T24: Version Control System for development under T24 (not T24 > VERSION.CONTROL) > > > Hi to all, > > I was wondering, when selecting a version control system to be used > for T24 development, > someone would choose: > 1.
