Version Control by Example


Book Description




Version Control with Subversion


Book Description

One of the greatest frustrations in most software projects is managing changes to information. This guide, written by members of the Subversion open source development team, introduces the powerful new versioning tool designed to be the successor to the Concurrent Version System or CVS.




Pragmatic Version Control Using Git


Book Description

There's a change in the air. High-profile projects such as the Linux Kernel, Mozilla, Gnome, and Ruby on Rails are now using Distributed Version Control Systems (DVCS) instead of the old stand-bys of CVS or Subversion. Git is a modern, fast, DVCS. But understanding how it fits into your development can be a daunting task without an introduction to the new concepts. Whether you're just starting out as a professional programmer or are an old hand, this book will get you started using Git in this new distributed world.




Pragmatic Version Control Using Subversion


Book Description

This book covers the theory behind version control and how it can help developers become more efficient, work better as a team, and keep on top of software complexity. Version control, done well, is your "undo" button for the project: nothing is final, and mistakes are easily rolled back. This book describes Subversion 1.3, the latest and hottest open source version control system, using a recipe-based approach that will get you up and running quickly and correctly. Learn how to use Subversion the right way-the pragmatic way. With this book, you can: Keep all project assets safe--not just source code--and never run the risk of losing a great ideaKnow how to undo bad decisions--even directories and symlinks are versionedLearn how to share code safely, and work in parallel for maximum efficiencyInstall Subversion and organize, administer and backup your repositoryShare code over a network with Apache, svnserve, or sshCreate and manage releases, code branches, merges and bug fixesManage 3rd party code safelyUse all the latest Subversion 1.3 features including locking and path-based security, and much more! Now there's no excuse not to use professional-grade version control.




Pragmatic Guide to Git


Book Description

Need to learn how to wrap your head around Git, but don't need a lot of hand holding? Grab this book if you're new to Git, not to the world of programming. Git tasks displayed on two-page spreads provide all the context you need, without the extra fluff.




Modern Programming Made Easy

Building Software Teams


Book Description

Why does poor software quality continue to plague enterprises of all sizes in all industries? Part of the problem lies with the process, rather than individual developers. This practical guide provides ten best practices to help team leaders create an effective working environment through key adjustments to their process. As a follow-up to their popular book, Building Maintainable Software, consultants with the Software Improvement Group (SIG) offer critical lessons based on their assessment of development processes used by hundreds of software teams. Each practice includes examples of goalsetting to help you choose the right metrics for your team. Achieve development goals by determining meaningful metrics with the Goal-Question-Metric approach Translate those goals to a verifiable Definition of Done Manage code versions for consistent and predictable modification Control separate environments for each stage in the development pipeline Automate tests as much as possible and steer their guidelines and expectations Let the Continuous Integration server do much of the hard work for you Automate the process of pushing code through the pipeline Define development process standards to improve consistency and simplicity Manage dependencies on third party code to keep your software consistent and up to date Document only the most necessary and current knowledge
