Having just upgraded to CFB2 I decided the clunky old Source Safe
plugin was more trouble than it was worth so I went to investigate
which direction to go for a new source control program that will work
well with CFB2.
Perhaps I am missing something (and if so please enlighten me) but
there seems
VSS, ouch! everyone seems to be going Git these days

At work we use subversion with the subversive plugin.
It's not as cool as git or mercurial but it does the job adequately.
One thing to consider is how each will work if you are hosting the repository
on a windows server I guess.
I have used hgEclipse on personal projects and found it
Yeah, anything that works with Eclipse should work with CFB.
That being said, I always install CFB as a plugin, rather than the
standalone, just to be sure.
When using Git - there is eGit, although I don't think it's anything crazy
special, and only really use it to see changed files, and do a
Thanks everyone, great info.
Zak, yeah I only moved off Homesite+ this year so I am a tad behind
the times. Still not as productive in CFB as I was in HS but then I
had a good 10 or 15 years in HS so I am committing to CFB to give it a
red hot go.
I'm pretty happy working from a command line so
I found subclipse had an issue when used with CFBuilder 1 - the right click
would not work after you selected Team - Synchronize. This was still present
in the beta of Builder 2. I have not tried with the latest release as I found
subversive to be adequate.
I think the OP said they are a
Last time I used Git on windows, I did it from within cygwin. Worked pretty
well.

I am only recently moved on over to CFB, Homesite+ was my IDE
of choice for almost a decade..
Subversion has been my work horse for a very long time, after CVS
which was painful all my devs on projects which now use Git
always start swearing profusely whenever they have to use SVN,
which is a

From what I understand, the tooling in Hg, kicks butt over Git. But I think
95% of Git users use the command line.
Also - GitHub, GitHib, GitHub. If you use ANY open source project, and it's
on there, and you have any form of code contribution, I cannot express how
easy it makes it to do this.
Yeah cygwin is a decent option if you're in Windows. If you go that route
check out Console2 for a couple of extra goodies (tabbed interface, better
select/copy/paste in particular)

I strongly advise using a hosting provider for your central Git or Hg
repository. It's easy enough to run a plain repository server on your
network, but you won't get any of the nice workflow support that's available
on provided services. There are several commercial providers
Nice writeup, Dennis. Thanks.
For those who may now be more interested in Mercurial, I'll throw in as well
that good ol' Joel Spolsky has a tutorial site for Mercurial:
http://hginit.com/.
And just as there was the re-bean book for SVN
(http://svnbook.red-bean.com/), there is one for hg also:
For git there is also the community book -
http://book.git-scm.com/
and the Pro Git book as well:
http://progit.org/
All content for both is freely available.
