I'm rebuilding my own personal development environment, since funds are very very very limited I'm looking for a very inexpensive (free or open source) if available RCS/CVS system, doesn't matter if it ties into the IDE or even has a nice front end to it (although that would be nice... Any suggestions? Thanks... Back to top Pete Fraser Guest Posted: Thu Jun 01, 2006 8:15 am    Post subject: Re: RCS/CVS recommendations? Agreed. I use both CVS and SVN.

I would definitely second TortoiseSVN. I have been using it for a few years now and it works like a gem. Alan.

I could be wrong about that -- no, SVN 1.2 introduces locking! Yes it did. Unfortunately, they use the same term, so it sounds at first like the same thing. But the spelling is about all they have in common. In SVN, you check out the whole directory at once. You certainly don't lock all the files. Then you deal with conflicts after the fact. With locking ala VCS, you deal with conflicts pre-emptively. There is no way to have a conflict when you check it in. -- Thanks, Brad.

Brad, maybe we'd better not ask. The last time Jim explained one of his colloquial expressions, it created quite a stir. I hesitated. but in the end, my curiosity got the best of me. I'm sure he does it on purpose. But you are right, it is probably best not to encourage him. I'll try harder next time. -- Thanks, Brad.

That way I could use PushOk to access SVN (or any other, SCC compatible, VCS). I got used to it in VS and now, every time I use Delphi, it's just annoying to do version control in explorer... :-/ Use total commander for file management - Explorer is a a really poor way to manage files IMO - because total commander can be driven by the keyboard and the mouse at the same time with well thought out keyboardshortcuts already pre set up for you - such as CTRL-\ to go back directory, or backspace if your prefer - CTRL-ARROW and ALT-ARROW are also useful keyboard shortcuts which match file panels or go back in your history. But with SVN there are a few things you still have to pull open Explorer for because total commander doesn't handle the right click moving menu items (move files to SVN repository here, etc.). Install a button in total commander to open current file panel in explorer, and install a button in Delphi tools menu to "explore current project directory in total commander". Click tools menu in delphi, launch the custom tool you made which launches total commander, and you are at your directory that you need to work with. Only thing about tortoise I don't like is it is yet another shell extensoin which slows the whole operating system down - every time I right click with my mouse my CPU pegs up to 500% for 10 minutes because of all the nasty TortoiseSVN/TortoiseCVS/SendTo menu items that need to load.
