Book Reviews of Version Control with Subversion
Book Review: An Introduction to version control from its basics
Summary: 5 Stars
Subversion, a successor to CVS is a widly used, novel approach to versioning of filesystems. Novelties to CVS are that versioning of the whole filesystem instead of single file, which made it possilble to have directories under version control, efficient storage of versioning meta-data, making it possible to have binary files under version control. The book itself introduces the basic concepts of version contol by focusing on the features of subversion. An extra chapter - in appendix - summerizes all the differences to CVS. This chapter is very welcome to people used to CVS who want to - or have to - get used to subversion. To me, as an assistant lecturer at the University of Miskolc, the book is going to be a textbook for stundents of software engineering to getting used to version control systems.
Summary of Version Control with Subversion
Written by members of the development team that maintains Subversion, this is the official guide and reference manual for the popular open source revision control technology. The new edition covers Subversion 1.5 with a complete introduction and guided tour of its capabilities, along with best practice recommendations.Version Control with Subversion is useful for people from a wide variety of backgrounds, from those with no previous version control experience to experienced system administrators.
Subversion is the perfect tool to track individual changes when several people collaborate on documentation or, particularly, software development projects. As a more powerful and flexible successor to the CVS revision control system, Subversion makes life so much simpler, allowing each team member to work separately and then merge source code changes into a single repository that keeps a record of each separate version.
Inside the updated edition Version Control with Subversion, you'll find:
- An introduction to Subversion and basic concepts behind version control
- A guided tour of the capabilities and structure of Subversion 1.5 Guidelines for installing and configuring Subversion to manage programming, documentation, or any other team-based project
- Detailed coverage of complex topics such as branching and repository administration
- Advanced features such as properties, externals, and access control
- A guide to best practices
- Complete Subversion reference and troubleshooting guide
