Version Control 101 With CVS
By Rodney Amato
This guide is only intended to get you started with CVS. The day-to-day overhead added from using CVS is simply running update and commit functions, which, considering you can track the full history of your files as you change them and as your site/program grows and can have multiple people working on the same file at the same time, is definetly worth it in the long run!

A good explanation of a piece of software I never knew existed . . . I've been using .rtf files to track changes to software builds, I never even knew CVS software existed! The time this is going to save me . . . thanks!!

This was a great article, and VERY TIMELY for me. Question: If I install this on my Windows 2003 Web Server Box, does it provide the ability for my hosting customers doing web design to use CVS? I have a customer who has aksed me for my server to support "cvs programming language" and I am not sure exactly what to put on my server to meet this request. ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE IS APPRECIATED!
[Editors note: Yes it will be able to be used by your customers as well, they just need to download the CVS app to their PC's too] |
