I recently joined the IT department of a big insurance company. Although the department's title is "IT", a lot of code gets written here; Java, JSP, JavaScript, COBOL and even some C++ from what I've heard. All the programs that allow insurers, brokers and the rest of the tie-wearing, white-collar workers to issue new contracts and deal ...
I am new to Team Foundation Server and I'm trying to connect to a project programmatically using c#. I have the following block of code ... string serverName = "http://tfs01:8080"; TeamFoundationServer tfs = new TeamFoundationServer(serverName); VersionControlServer version = (VersionControlServer)tfs.GetService(typeof (VersionControlSe...
We need to store binary files (mostly MS Word documents, ranging from a couple of KB to a couple of MB in size) in a version control repository with over 100 "projects". Currently we use Visual Source Safe but there are some problems, the database is crashing sometimes and the access is slow. We are considering moving to Git or Subver...
Hi, I've had subversion running in Xcode for a while. The integration of subversion has always hung by a thread. However my subversion server has changed its ip address ... and my xcode project still tries to look up the source on the old ip. I have changed the ip of the subversion server via the SCM menu in xcode ... however these cha...
How can you put the prefix ?v=VersionNumber to each file at your repository efficiently by Git/Svn? I found out that SO uses the practise to give version numbers to each specific file in its repo. They use SVN. I would like to know how you can do the same by Git. A few examples. #1 <link rel="stylesheet" href="/content/all.css?v=39...
I've read about the svn move command but haven't been able to use it the right way... Here's my situation: I have a project with 5 components. Right now, I've made separate Repositories for each component and they all have a flat structure. I'd like to move all these components into a single repository so that I'd finally have a structur...
I am using git-svn with the following workflow now git clone <SVN TRUNK URL> #done once subsequently when I work on a feature git branch featureZ git checkout featureZ #make edits for featureZ git commit git checkout master git svn rebase # fetch changes from server git checkout featureZ #go back to branch #git merge master git re...
I ask myself this every time I replace a Photoshop .psd file that I have under version control. You can see with ls -l that PS has created a thumbnail icon in the resource fork. ...
I guess this question relates to any source control system, but I'm looking for answers that will work with Team Foundation. We're starting the work to migrate several of our projects into Foundation Server (getting them out of SourceSafe). As part of this work, we're trying to instill a bit more discipline with our branching. Thus far...
Both Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2005 and 2008 lose history (check-ins + comments) on files when they branched and merged back. So e.g. if changes in a branch are made then merged back to the root branch, none of the changes made in the branch are visible in the root branch. The only thing visible in the history states that a merge occu...
I'm trying to find a legend that can help explain the different colors Netbeans uses to describe the state of a file. In my project, some of my files are: grey blue green [colors I have yet to discover] If it helps, I'm using Netbeans6.7 with CVS. ...
Is there a way to get a related file tree for files in eclipse? In other words I want to know ALL possible files changing a particular file could effect. So if I change an image file I want to know all JSPs that reference that image and all servlets that reference that JSP and all other java classes that reference that servlet... etc. M...
I was searching for options for a plugin for MKS version control within Visual Studio 2008. I found the main website mentioning a plugin availible, but so far it sounds like it was orginaly for visual studio 2005. Is there any confirmation that it works ok with visual studio 2008 also? I assume it might work fine, but I have not seen ...
G'day, Just listened to Jeff and Joel talk about open source version numbers in SO podcast #59 and it made me think about a problem I currently have where I need to look at various possibilities for implementing a centralised, logging mechanism for a large scale web site. And I mean really large. Really, really large. One possibility i...
As the title says, I would like to use Vault for source control of an MS Access application that contains forms, queries and modules with vb code. I want to avoid the tedious process of exporting and importing modules to and from text files for the purpose of diffing with previous code. Thanks. ...
I'm using VS2008 SP1 and TFS 2008 for version control. The other day, I had a merge conflict in a .sln file when doing a Get-Latest. I resolved the conflict, and all appeared to be well. Now however, the VS2008 source control integration has gone wrong. What used to happen when editing a non-checked out file was that VS2008 would sile...
I create websites for people. I have given them the ability to edit certain areas of their published pages using CushyCMS. That works fine, and everyone is happy with it. When I go to publish some of my more extensive changes, I first need to pull down the latest version that they have produced. Then I make my changes, and upload eve...
I am trying to perform a big checkin of a lot of semi-automatically generated files, and they should all have svn:mime-type properties. I've set a lot using find, but how do I now find all those remaining files that are to be added and which haven't had a MIME type assigned? ...
Brief: I work in a 2-men team (we may expand in future). We've got a web-dev server and we've got a production server. Currently, when we start development, we start them on localhost, then we deploy them to web-dev (which we have access through a mounted drive) and we submit changes from this "shared" drive to SVN. Final test on web-dev...
I have a SVN repository that has stuff from Bin directory (.exe, .dll, .pdb). I would like to clean up the repository to erase those file and to prevent them to come back. How can I clean the repository (without going file by file, directory by directory)? How can I prevent to add these file? (In SVNTortoise I have added a Global ignor...
