There is a game that
camp fire girls play around the camp fire where the first girl whispers
something in the next girls ear and this goes on from girl to girl and the
last girl says out loud what she heard from the 2nd to the girl.
Then the 1st girl says the original statement.
The fun is to see how
much the story changes from girl to girl
Girl is the metaphor
for email LOL! J

To
John, Jim, Ben, and Niall:
I'm sure that there are users who appreciate
the information that you have provided, however the original post clearly
stated:
Does anyone
use CVS with their dev studio? I note from the docs that the
studio
supports sourcesafe, but we run OSX/linux, so CVS is the way to go.
The
dev studio Workspace Files pane is pretty anemic, so I don't know
that I
would miss much if I abandoned it. But any tips on integrating
witango
development with CVS would be appreciated.
and
my followup post asked specifically about OS X. Yet all of the posts that
followed went off in a different direction talking about solutions for Windoze
platforms. I'm not sure which platform Cornelius was looking for. If it was
Windoze then I'm sure that the information was helpful.
I'm suggesting
that you please read the posts carefully. If what you are suggesting is not
cross-platform, or if it doesn't directly apply to the platform specified in
the original post, then please be considerate and say so. That way those of us
that prefer working on a different platform don't waste our time.
The
Windoze users wouldn't want to read a long discussion and start drooling about
machines with 64-bit processors, 8 Gb of RAM and a 1 GH Frontside Bus only to
realize that they aren't available on the Intel platform, would they???
(sorry, I couldn't resist that - the new boxes look so cool!)
If there
is anyone who has CVS working with the Mac Dev Studio, I'm sure that Bill and
I and perhaps a few others would be interested in hearing how they got it
configured.
Thanks,
Steve Smith

Jim,
Did
you read my post about TortiseCVS? It's much better than WinCVS (IMO) and it
allows you to setup local repositories as well. The strength lies in thefact
that you don't have to startup a program to do your cvs work. Tortise adds all
the cvs commands to the "right-click" menu for files and
folders.
Because of the way tortise handles CVS functions, integrating
with the Witango Editor would be more of a hinderence that what I have now,
because it means that if I had a CVS module with a mix of tango and other code
(which i have many) i would have to start up tango to checkout or check in
something that has nothing to do with tango.

Folks,
I
thought I'd chime in on this discussion. Just for the record, I'm
using
winCVS right now on an XP box.
It would be nice if it were
more integrated into the Tango environment, but
its not really that big of
a deal to just open winCVS to do a commit at the
end of a series of
changes. Also, winCVS allows you to write macros using
python, so extending
it is pretty simple. I suppose you could even write a
script that using XML
built a log of which DTD elements were changed since
the last rev, instead
of the rather ambiguous "diff" function which unless
you know your Tango
DTD really well is pretty unreadable even for the
smallest
changes.
At the moment I'm using CVS locally, but once I can convince
the company to
adapt their ways, we'll have a remote directory on a Solaris
or Linux box
somewhere, and we'll get into the habit of doing a 'cvs
update' before
editing any files in our local sandbox. Because CVS doesn't
care how many
people 'check-out' files - concurrent development is
possible, and then at
the point of 'committ' cvs can check your last rev
against the current rev
to determine if it has been changed since you
started editing it - a simple
way of protecting against overwriting other
people's changes.
winCVS doesn't have a great interface, and honestly -
I would prefer to just
use the cvs command-line version in cygwin (and of
course for you OSX folks,
you've got a command-line version already
installed in Darwin). In its
defense, winCVS does have the nice feature of
colorizing files that have
been modified locally, so you always remember
what you may have changed, and
it has filters that help you find what you
want. For windows users, it's
pretty much the only solution out there if
you intend to use CVS.
I've heard that CVS has some competitors in the
open-source community,
anyone know anything more?
Cheers!

Using a piece of software known as Jalindi
Igloo you can use CVS
as your source control. The software (which is free)
enables CVS
source control through the Witango IDE similar to
SourceSafe
