RE: [Dynapi-Dev] Version controll or something

[Pascal B. <pa...@dy...>]

big problem here is that most of us can't get CVS working
correctly. (yeah, yeah.. windows users :) I know there's a
win32 client for CVS somewhere, but haven't tried it (and haven't
actually found it, which is ofcourse contributing to the fact of
me not trying it)

I think Robert is doing a GREAT job keeping up with all
patch submissions here.. cheers!

Any comments/ideas on CVS or other version controlling?

Personally, I was disappointed when you turned off CVS. Of course, if
the developers aren't using it to commit changes, I guess it doesn't do
much good. But for other projects I track/contribute, it's really
convenient to just do a "cvs update" and have it fetch all the recently
modified files for me.

On the Thatware project (http://thatware.org/ or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/thatware/), we do the usual: we use CVS
to perform updates for bleeding edge code. Every once in a while, the
project leader calls a feature freeze, and we can only commit bug fixes.
Then once things seem calm, he makes a new release from the CVS and we
open the floodgates for new (buggy :) code again.
