Google Wave as code repository and IDE?

Is it possible to write a Google Wave plugin that turns it into an IDE for programming? With such an extension, Google Wave would be a replacement for Eclipse etc., and it would naturally be a code repository at the same time (replacing SVN, git, etc.). Users (programmers) would be able to create code files directly in Wave and add coll...

Mercurial Bookmarks and 'Git like branching'

I am not having any luck using Bookmarks in Mercurial for Git like branching. From the article: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BookmarksExtension, I've set "track.current" to true in my .hgrc file. Excerpt below: By default, when several bookmarks point to the same changeset, they will all move forward together. It is pos...

Does version control let you work simultaneously on two different versions of a project?

Wasn't really sure how to word the question ... I have a project and I'd like to have a version with code for shareware registration, activation, etc. and another version without this added code (i.e., an unrestricted version). Having created two different versions, however, I'd like to continue working on the overall project; if I up...

Best practices to keep up a diverging branch of code

I'm in a situation where some minor patches I've submitted to an open-source project were ignored or explicitly not accepted. I consider them useful, but more important is that I need the functionality they implement. I don't want to push my ideas and suggestions anymore to the main contributors, because I don't want to turn this into a...

MySQL Version Control - Subversion

Wondering if it is possible to have a version control of a MySQL database. I realize this question has been asked before however the newest is almost a year ago, and at the rate things change... The problem is coming that each developer has apache/MySQL/PHP on their own computers to which they sometimes edit the database. Its rather in...

Actually I'm using VSS, but I was wondering if there is another tool for version control with support for labels/tags (the subversion implementation doesn't count:). What are you guys using? ...

Would like to create some defaults for my .hgignore files in TortoiseHG/Mercurial

I'd like to make it so that every time I create a new repository, certain filters automatically get added to my .hgignore files by default. For example, for C# projects, I would like these to be added: glob:bin/* glob:obj/* Is this possible? How? If it can't be automated, is it at least safe to copy the .hgignore file from one repos...

Adding Version Control / Numbering (?) to Python Project

With my Java projects at present, I have full version control by declaring it as a Maven project. However I now have a Python project that I'm about to tag 0.2.0 which has no version control. Therefore should I come accross this code at a later date, I won't no what version it is. How do I add version control to a Python project, in th...

Diffing between two entire directories/projects?

I inherited a project originally stored in CVS with all the revisions. I made quite a few edits, and I'm trying to compare all the changes I made in the original directory, in regards to new files added versus the old ones. Is there some sort of utility for hg/git where I can do a tree diff, or something of that nature? So that say, the...

FogBugz On Demand + online source control at low/no cost?

I have a project in the free hosted FogBugz On Demand (FOD) product right now. This is great for feature/issue tracking. But I've been working from a codebase that is solely on my development machine. I'd like to collaborate with another guy who is thousands of miles from me. So we need a source control solution (SCM)! I use Visual Stud...

Git global tags--- evidently bad, but why?

In his 2005 email to the Linux Kernel mailing list, Linus Torvalds is very emphatic that tags in git should be private and not be automatically included when fetching from others: Pulling a regular head cannot and must not update tags. Tags are not associated with the tree, and they cannot and must not be so, exactly because that...

ECM - Document Control Management / Versioning and CMS

Hello All, I anticipate this is going to be a very broad question however I shall endevour to be as concise as possible without divulging too much project critical information. For quite some time I have been working a Content Management System. However, its vastly different to many CMS's available because of the way it handles the dis...

tf14087 Cannot undelete [file] because not all of the deletion is being undeleted

We are getting this error when we try to merge from a development branch (Dev) back to its parent branch (Main). Main did have some changesets rolled back a few weeks ago which included the deletion of some folders which exist in Dev. We believe this is the source of the problem. What is the best way to resolve this. Main should pr...

Version control for interdepedent modules

How do I track and manage the dependencies of software modules under version control? I am building several websites, each of which uses a particular Apache configuration, particular Django code, a shared Python library, and some shared Javascript. For each site these pieces are interdependent -- if the server code changes, the Javas...

What Source Control?

I desperately need source control to manage projects between more than one developer. A long time ago I used Visual Source Safe and it worked quite well. Can anybody recommend a free substitute? I have the following basic requirements: I need to host the repository on my own server. I do not want extra clutter within my source files,...

Using TFS with Third Party Bug/Issue Tracking?

Do you commit a complete web-directory to SVN or you do some exceptions (large binaries)?

Particularly I mean videos. I have fair bit of videos on my website and as I do submit all graphics with the sources, I have serious doubts about committing videos and archives (sizes between 10MB and 300MB). Does it make any sense at all to do this? ...

Recommendations to handle development and deployment of php web apps using shared project code

I am wondering what the best way (for a lone developer) is to develop a project that depends on code of other projects deploy the resulting project to the server I am planning to put my code in svn, and have shared code as a separate project. There are problems with svn:externals which I cannot fully estimate. I've read subversi...
