[comp.sources.wanted] Looking for PD source control

mike@wang.com (Mike Sullivan) (03/06/90)

I am looking for sources to a source control system ala RCS or SCCS.  They
will be used on a PC 386 running SCO UNIX.  Any leads appreciated.

I guess information about this stuff is usually in the gnu news groups,
which my system does not receive yet.  But I just received this information
about free software which I am in the process of checking out.  If you need
more details, I'll be glad to mail the entire 1500-line file.

   * RCS

     The latest version of the Revision Control System for version
     control and management of large software projects.

   * CVS

     CVS, the Concurrent Version System written by Brian Berliner,
     manages software revision and release control in a multi-developer,
     multi-directory, multi-group environment. It is designed to work on
     top of RCS Version 4, but will parse older RCS formats with the
     loss of CVS's fancier features.  For further details, see Berliner,
     Brian, `CVS-II: Parallelizing Software Development,' Proceedings of
     the Winter 1990 USENIX Association Conference.
