Source Code Management Systems
Paul M. Nguyen,president of Eat Society, gave a short presentation about Source Code Managment, also known as Revision Control Systems or Version Control Systems
These tools can be used to maintain the revision history of source code, documentation, and binary files associated with a software or hardware project, in order to revert to a previous state of code, or view a previous state for whatever reason. They can also be used to manage collaborative development, in which multiple developers edit the same or different files that comprise the same project, thereby creating a unified way of identifying the state of the project, and of identifying which developer contributed which stored change. He introduced both client-server and distributed models of SCM, and proceeded to demonstrate the Mercurial distributed SCM, following a tutorial from the vendor's website. |
