First post in this forum?!? COOOOOL. :P Does anyone here use version control software, either professionally or for their personal projects? I've looked at a few. I've tried CVS/WinCVS (free, open source), PVCS, Visual Source Safe, and Perforce. We use Perforce a LOT work, and it's really powerful, especially if you do a lot of branching and merging. Just recently I discovered that Perforce is *free* if you have just 1 or 2 users! I was surprised at how easy it was to set up, and have now started using it for all my personal projects. Its learning curve is probably a little steeper than some other version control packages, but once you understand what's going on, its very cool. ------------------ |

I used source control system at my last job (all of the engineers were required to use it). Unfortunately, TGS does not have such a system set up... HINT HINT HINT |

professionally we use starteam, and it works pretty well and is very easy to use, no steep learning key - i doubt that its the best though ------------------ |

I am using CS-RCS which is a simple revision control system w/ a gui. Very easy to use and free for 1 user. ------------------ |
