This book is a recipe-based approach to using the CVS Version Control system that will get you up and running quickly--and correctly. All projects need version control: it`s a foundational piece of any project`s infrastructure. Yet half of all project teams in the U.S. don`t use any version control at all. Many others don`t use it well, and end up experiencing time-consuming problems.
Version Control, done well, is your "undo" button for the project: nothing is final, and mistakes are easily rolled back. With version control, you`ll never again lose a good idea because someone overwrote your file edits. You can always find out easily who made what changes to the source code--and why. Version control is a project-wide time machine. Dial in a date and see exactly what the entire project looked like yesterday, last Tuesday, or even last year.
This book describes a practical, easy-to-follow way of using CVS, the most commonly used version control system in the world (and it`s available for free). Instead of presenting the grand Theory of Version Control and describing every possible option (whether you`d ever use it or not), this book focuses on the practical application of CVS. It builds a set of examples of use that parallel the life of typical projects, showing you how to adopt and then enhance your pragmatic use of CVS. ISBN-- 9788184040746
