I'm trying to implement database source control. the tool I need should create a separate file for each object in the database, preferably arranged in folders, like stored procedures functions views tables and it would be great being able to also dump the results of certain queries, in order to keep track of the data changes in sever...
I am using the SCM Tools embedded in XCode to manage my app's versioning. I have created an iPhone app and I have added/committed it to the Subversion server but the .xcodeproj file won't upload (all the class files, resources etc are there)! I don't even get the option to "Add to Repository". Sometimes it gets an "A" (add) next to it u...
Hi, I'm trying to get a list of all check-ins (limited / ordered by date) via the TFS query editor in Visual Studio Team Explorer. I can make a query that lists all bugs, sprint backlog item or product backlog item, but I can't find the actual check-in. Is it's possible or should I make (SQL) queries directly on the database. Ideas?...
A coworker relayed the following problem, let's say it's fictional to protect the guilty: A team of 5-10 works on a project which is issue-driven. That is, the typical flow goes like this: a chunk of work (bug, enhancement, etc.) is created as an issue in the issue tracker The issue is assigned to a developer The developer resolves t...

I work in a Visual Studio/.NET shop which is still using VSS 2005 for source control. We are looking to upgrade to VS Team Foundation Server and use it's source control system, but I'm curious if that's really the best option.

I get the same error described in this other SO post. The difference is that things are working when I'm at work where I don't have to VPN to the network. But when I try to access the same exact SVN repo from home I get the following error: TortoiseSVN Error: “OPTIONS of ‘https://…’ could not connect to server (…)” This was never a prob...
We have been developing SSIS packages for about a year now, and have 2 major issues associated with the maintenance of these packages : 1) We are using version control, but trying to identify the changes between versions of packages is a nightmare - the results of a text diff between 2 versions of a package is basically unusable. 2) Fo...
Is it insane to integrate Git into the project that has nothing to do with source control. I am thinking about data collector that regularly runs several commands on the client side and commit the output into the local git repository. If remote server is available it pushes the data in origin for further processing on the server side. ...

As of late, my team and I have been hard at work turning our inherited source code into something we can live with. Part of this process is to make the source control image look a little more like what most people might expect to find when browsing a repository. The original structure contains a branch called "Branches", the contents of...
I'm looking at migrating a large suite of IBM Assembler Language programs, from a vcs based on "filenames include version numbers", to a modern vcs which will give me, among other things, the ability to branch and merge. These files have 80-column records, the last 8 columns being an almost-meaningless sequence number. For a number o...
Is there a clean way to extract the VBA from a spreadsheet and store it in a repository. The spreadsheets hardly ever change but the VBA does. Storing the whole spreadsheet in the repository makes it difficult to do diffs across the different VBA revisions to see what code has changed and who changed it. We use VBA 6.5 / Excel 2003. ...
I'm doing a web app, and I need to make a branch for some major changes, the thing is, these changes require changes to the database schema, so I'd like to put the entire database under git as well. How do I do that? is there a specific folder that I can keep under a git repository? How do I know which one? How can I be sure that I'm pu...
My application needs to conform to a new specification. So I want to tag a version of my app as it stands. I want to be able to check out this version in the future.

We're using TFS and we're having problems when we switch branches, it's throwing up problems with the TFS bindings every single time. We still have .vspcc files .vsscc files which is I'm guessing where it stores the bindings, does anyone have any advice on how to easily switch between branches in TFS without pain? ...
This should be a very simple thing to have run, but for some reason it won't work with my Mercurial repository. All I want is for the remote repo to automatically run hg update whenever someone pushes to it. So I have this in my .hg/hgrc file: [hook] changegroup = hg update Simple, right? But for some reason, this never executes. I al...
I'm looking for a version numbering scheme/pattern/system for an application that is currently branched into several versions with shell game style release dates. This has made versioning a nightmare. I'd like to just use the typical Major.Minor.Revision however this will break down for me quickly the way things are presently run around ...
