little research on recent Version Controll Systems
In this days i had the opportunity, to get deeper in version control systems. Recently I use SVN for this task but it has the week points, and I think it is good to look around, i started to read thebook called Version Control with Git. It is a really good book to get introduced into the topic, butthere are some more distributed visioning systems too. I think it is the best thing to do is to readmore about them. So I read about
- Git
- Bazaar
- Mercurial
I know, there are lot more solution for that purpose, but I had to select from them. I found some video resources as well, I gonna share it with you.
The following is a good intro into git:
This is an old, but a nice description on mercurial:
I had no time to review the any videos on bazaar, but it is the part of the GNU project, I think it is a good point for this project, and has a really good documentation, so it is worthy to spend a few minutes on it's site.
I think the future of the Version Control Systems is on the distributed way. Of course I cannot serve any conclusion for anybody, but I can say, Git is worthy to use it on some sample projects, and i'll be happy with it. I tend to that one of the most outstanding feature of the system of ti's extraordonary merging and branching mechanism, and the debugging feature called "bisec", if you are interested look for it, try it int the distributed way, and have a nice journey
No conclusion, and at the end some subjective perspective, take care!
