Very old news.
- jdludlow 16y agoIndeed. When I clicked the article link, I expected to find something from ~2007.
- spacemanaki 16y agoAnd yet some of us are stuck using CVS.
- CountHackulus 16y agoSome of us are stuck using Clear Case or Visual Source Safe. Whatever source control you're using, someone always has it worse.
- selectnull 16y ago"someone always has it worse." Unfortunatelly, not in your case. ;)
- Aegean 16y agoWhat was the name of that version control tool before CVS, RVCS? Back in 2007 I had heard one very big name hardware company using that for version control and planning to move to CVS as they thought the former was beginning to show its age.
- edabobojr 16y agoOr you could talk to Joe down the hall. He has the 'gold' version of the source code on his desktop. Don't forget to send him your changes when you are done and he will integrate it to the current 'gold' version.
- kenjackson 16y agoI used SCCS in the 80s. Not sure if that was the one you're talking about though.
- gacba 16y agoYou're thinking of RCS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_Control_System http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_Control_System
- danssig 16y agoI would rather have Clear Case than SVN. As bad as it is, at least it can branch and merge.
- _djo_ 16y agoThe company I'm working at actually moved to ClearCase a couple of years back. It's the most painful development tool that I have ever used and I pity any future victims of IBM's marketing skill who choose to adopt it.
- supirman 16y ago"someone always has it worse"... That was my previous place of employment: in-house perl scripts wrapped around RCS. Absolute nightmare.
