Anyone know if there's a version of SCCS, RCS, or any other system for controlling versions of software under development under PC-DOS? Please E-mail, rather than post-- I don't usually read this group... Thanks very much. Antonio Romero romero@psycho.Princeton.EDU

I've used PVCS (Polytron Version Control System) from Polytron of Hillsboro Oregon. It is much like RCS, to the point of having matching file keywords. It works pretty well, keeps track of who has what locked in a multiuser environment, lets you assign version names independently of revision numbers, can keep a change log, etc. Costs about $395 for a single user version, $1000 and up for a network version. The support is OK, they are interested in hearing about bugs and do fix them in subsequent releases. -- John R.

The idea of porting >RCS sounds like a lot of work, but if it's already been done... ;-) Polytron (the folks in Oregon who brought you PolyMake and other Poly... things) have a "Version Control System." It is not an exact clone of SCCS, but it is a functional equivalent and seems to work okay for us. I seem to recall it being in the $100-200 range, but the discount houses would probably be your best bet. I have no relationship with Polytron other than being a reasonably satisfied user of their products in general, the their VCS product in particular -- Dick Flanagan, W6OLD Long Live Zero Print Control UUCP: ...!ucbvax!sun!plx!dick GEnie: FLANAGAN

The major problem is it uses parts of proprietary ATT code for the diff routines. In order to use it on MS-DOS, you need a Unix source license. I too badly need a source control system and I don't like buying products without source code. marty

We have used PVCS from Polytron with great success. It has a network version also for multi-workstation access over PC-NET or equiv. <my name is in the header>

Is there anybody supplying SCCS for a PC running DOS? I am using
SCCS on UNIX and XENIX and would like to make the SCCS files available
on DOS for history and changes. If it needs to use an SCCS front
end, that would be find, as long as it accepted the UNIX SCCS file
format (obviously the s. file needs a name change, but that could be
in a separate directory). If SCCS is not available, is there an
equivalent available that would run under SUNOS 3.x, SUNOS4.x, HP-UX,
DOS, and Altos XENIX? SCCS at least hits 4 of the 5 systems. Source
availability would be a plus if it is not SCCS. Also, some means of
converting the existing SCCS files (with history for about 200000 lines
of code and documentation) would be needed. Thanks for any help.
