I have a repository using Rational ClearCase Explorer 2003.06.10+ which I want to migrate into Serena ChangeMan Version Manager 8.1.4.2. Is this possible?

I am using the PVCS compiler in conjunction with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (a/k/a version 9.0). In any event, we are using a “.inc” file to set up our makefiles. The situation for linkflags is not good, We need something like: LINKFLAGS = /link /NODEFAULTLIB:MSVCRT.lib If the “/link” part is removed, the flags are not seen or rec...
From what I understand about transactions in Subversion this should be possible in principle, but I don't know any tool that supports it. The background is that we are discussing a migration from PVCS Dimensions to Subversion, and the main feature cited as missing in Subversion is "Design Parts". A design part is an arbitrary collection...

I've been tasked with setting up a version control for our web developers. The software, which was chosen for me because we already have other non-web developers using it, is Serena PVCS.

I am splitting out all static content (js, png, gif, jpg, html, etc) files from a large pvcs project and moving them into a separate pvcs project. How can I delete the files from the existing project without manually going through it and deleting each one? ...
A Google search revealed the existence of some custom scripts, for example PVCS --> CVS and then cvs --> svn should be quite straightforward. But ... Has anyone really tried them? With which versions of the platforms? Other migration experiences might be useful to know about too. Thanks. ...

Hi all. At work we use PVCS Version Manager 7.5 on a project. The project mainly uses PL/SQL and Java. Now I have never liked the way PCVS VM handles stuff. Especially when I would like to re-organize the layout of some of our projects. Subversion would handle this much more elegant (hiding files you have deleted in earlier revisions). ...
Hello everybody, My company is using presently SVN and testing other tools in order to migrate, if a more convenient tool is found. My question is about PVCS. I just wanted to know if PVCS features a view of the working copy as SVN does? As far as I know, in older versions, one has to work in local, out of the control of PVCS, then c...
