Organizing Master Graphics Files For A Web Application (Photoshop / Gimp)
Some of us programmers have to deal with graphic files every once and awhile... Making quick fixes to existing graphics Throwing together a quick sprite as a prototype Create an icon because the designer is too busy I don't think anybody should ever be editing web graphics (jpg / gif / png) directly. They should edit the master file...

I now want to add this to source contol and I am being given the option to either 'Add solution to source control...' or 'Add web site to source control...'.

help on version-control for legacy code.
I'm looking for some kind of backup/version-control method for a legacy system: Systems are developed in a version of BASIC. It's an interpreted version. Programs are saved in some pseudo-code; not pure text. All production programs are stored in the same folder tree, divided into folders depending on the category. No subversion stra...
How do you see the changes for a version in TFS?
I'm trying to migrate to TFS from VSS and I need to be able to show what files were checked in between two releases. In VSS we would just label the code for a release and view history between labels and generate a report to show the checkins and the comments. Is there a way to get similar results with TFS? Or show the differences between...
Why should I have a version control system if I use time machine?
I actually know that it's better to have an version control, but I wonder if Time Machine doesn't make a good job on this for lazy programmers? ...
Why don't files automatically get checked out from VSS when I edit them?
This is driving me crazy and has resulted in lost work (not much, at least). Normally, when I edit a file in Visual Studio, it's supposed to automatically check that file out in source safe. On multi-project solutions (e.g., web app with class libraries), sometimes none of the files in one project would automatically get checked out, th...
Private VCS hosts for school projects?
I want to use version control for a partner project for school, but these days it seems like there are no private, free VCS hosts that I could use. I would prefer to use git if possible, but I wouldn't mind SVN. Alternatively, if there aren't any, shouldn't there be some way for me to use git without a central repository? I don't know en...
How are DVCS used in large teams?
I've recently started getting into Git on a personal project, and I can see how a DVCS might benefit us at work (which is a large enterprise software company, currently running Perforce). Feature work in my team for example mostly consists of developers creating their own branches; sometimes these are shared between small teams of devel...
Cannot commit a git tag
I probably did this incorrectly. I made some changes to a git repository and committed these successfully, pushing them to the central repository. I realise now that I want to tag the current version of all files. So I do: git tag -a 0.5 That succeeds. But now I try a git push and I am told there's nothing to commit. How do I push...
PHP and source control: where to put unit tests, etc?
Hi, I'm using Bazaar for version control, which I'm very happy with. In Bazaar every tree/project in source control is called a 'branch'. Currently I have a 'main' branch for the actual application, and a 'dev' branch which houses some things like unit tests, as well as the user manual, etc. This way, both the app and its associated ...
Need help in best pratices using Darcs
I develop in Windows, C language using Codeblocks. Last week I started to use darcs. My application has 20 source code files. I am the only developer; it is a home project. What I usually have is a main version, and then have a few branches in parallel which are those I am coding in that moment. When I have finished a feature and have t...
What is the most annoying thing about the revision control system (SCM) you use?
This question is not asking what revision control software I should use. Rather, I would like to hear what you think are the downsides of some of the SCMs you've used. Websites and marketing material only highlight the advantages, but I want to hear from people who have actually used it what they think are the downsides. Can you name s...
Creative uses for version control
I'm searching for creative -- or at least non-standard -- uses for Version Control. I have a specific purpose in mind, but I don't want to stifle your creative thoughts with any sort of limitations. To that end, don't eliminate a creative use of VCS dealing with source code just because I said creative/non-standard: That doesn't mean it...
ASP.NET Solution Migration to 3.5 .. but only for *some* of the CS Projects !
I need to migrate a .net solution from 1.1 to 3.5. The solution currently contains 2 CS projects 1) a Class Library and 2) a Web Service application. Problem: I need to migrate the solution file and the Web Service application project, however I cannot migrate the Class Library as it is shared with another solution that will not be mig...
Team Foundation / SubVersion - Who has how much contrribution in the repository?
Has anyone come across with something that tells who has how much contribution in the the given repository (SubVersion or Team Foundation Server) e-g say there are 100 lines of code in 2 files; out of which khurram has written 30 lines and jhon has written 70 lines...something using TFS' Annotation and/or SubVersion' Blame (on each file...
git workflow question
Hi, this will be a long one but I hope you could bear with me. I am trying to use git to put my team's source codes under version control. After trying to find different approaches that would work for me, I finally decided to use git format-patch feature. FWIW, the product is an ASP.NET web application running in Windows and I am curren...

Searching the full-text of the files in the respository in svn?
Is there any way to search the full text of all the revisions (or just a specific revision) of a subversion repository? I mean I know that tools like Google Code search must do this somehow (or at least index the text), I was just wondering if there was any way to do this with just a subversion client. ...
DVCS with a Windows central repository
We are currently using VSS for version control. Quite few of our developers are interested in a distributed model (And want to get rid of VSS). Our network is full of Windows machines and while our IT department has experience maintaining Linux machines they would prefer not to. What DVCS systems can host their central repository on Win...
