[alt.sources.wanted] Source control

dan@kfw.COM (Dan Mick) (01/30/91)

Does anyone know of other source code control systems besides the following?

SCCS
RCS
CVS (built on top of RCS)

Is anyone doing research on SCCS-type systems, only better?  Where?

Any leads at all appreciated; email to 

	dan@kfw.com 
	  or 
	...uunet!charyb!dan.


In particular, I'm looking for a way to sensibly and compactly maintain
several different "standard" versions of a project, all of which share
some common code but that change independently of the common code.  

Sure, I could do it with makefiles, but I'd like the control and reporting 
of a meta-RCS, if such a thing exists.

Well, after examining the paper on CVS, I see it mentions "shape" from
comp.sources.unix/volume19; I'll take a look at that too.

However:  I'd still like to hear from someone else...

Has anyone used a thing presented by Andy Glew as "Boxes, Links, and Parallel
Trees:  Elements of a Configuration Management System"?

Does anyone have Andy Glew's current net address?
