Management Query
Jeff,
Nope, I'm pretty clueless in this area. I mean, I've used
RCS and BCS (BCS = RCS with branching, done at Carnegie Mellon), and then at
Microsoft I've used SLM (pronounced Slime) and more recently Visual
SourceSafe. I know there are really fancy systems out there based on
repositories and/or object oriented databases, but I don't know anything
about them.
I have a friend (Steve) who (if I remember correctly) did
his thesis on source control systems - but that was several years ago and I
don't know if he's been tracking the literature or the market.
Cheers,
- Joe
P.S. Sexy? Remember, you're talking to someone who has fun
writing device drivers and file systems :-)

Random query, here... and up front, yes, I
realize that this is about
as far from sexy as one can get. ;-)
Anyone have any pointers to
detailed comparisons, formal or informal
case histories, etc. for
various SC / CM systems, both free and
commercial?
Thanks in advance,
jb
