TortoiseCVS
TortoiseCVS is a CVS client for Microsoft Windows released under the GNU General Public License. Unlike most CVS tools, it integrates into Windows' shell by adding entries in the contextual menu of the file explorer. Therefore, it does not run in its own window. Moreover, it adds icons to files and directories controlled by CVS, giving additional information to the user without having to run a full-scale stand-alone application. The name is a pun on the words shell (computing, turtle). The tortoise in the logo is called Charlie Vernon Smythe (CVS). The project was initiated by Francis Irving when Creature Labs employed him to develop a better interface to CVS for his colleagues. Some of the code was derived from WinCVS and CVSNT. The first release was on 4 August 2000. Criticism TortoiseCVS will always add the argument "-c" to most CVS operations when communicating with a CVS server. This causes standard non- CVSNT servers to fail, as they are not aware of this argument. ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

CVSNT
CVSNT is a version control system compatible with and originally based on Concurrent Versions System (CVS), but whereas that was popular in the open-source world, CVSNT included features designed for developers working on commercial software including support for Windows, Active Directory authentication, reserved branches/locking, per-file access control lists and Unicode filenames. Also included in CVSNT were various RCS tools updated to work with more recent compilers and compatible with CVSNT. CVSNT was initially developed by users unhappy with the limitations of CVS 1.10.8, addressing limitations related to running CVS server on Windows and handling filenames for case-insensitive platforms. March Hare Software began sponsorship of the project in July 2004 to guarantee the project's future and to employ the original project manager on CVSNT development and commercial support. CVSNT was commercially popular, with a number of commercial IDEs directly including support for it inc ...

Francis Irving
Francis Irving (born 1974) is a British software engineer, freedom of information activist and former CEO of ScraperWiki. Education Irving studied A-levels in Biology, Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics and General Studies at high school and was subsequently educated at the University of Oxford. He received a first class degree in mathematics in 1995 as a student at Lincoln College, Oxford. Career Irving developed TortoiseCVS. He co-founded Public Whip with Julian Todd and became a developer of the affiliated TheyWorkForYou website, a project which parses raw Hansard data to track how members vote in the UK Parliament. Initially risking prosecution for re-using the raw data which was under crown copyright, the developers of Public Whip were later successful in getting permission to use it. In 2004, Public Whip was recognised in the New Media awards. In 2008, ''The Daily Telegraph'' rated TheyWorkforYou 41st in a list of the 101 most useful websites. Irving together ...

TortoiseHg
__NOTOC__ TortoiseHg is a GUI front-end for Mercurial that runs on Microsoft Windows (on which it integrates directly with File Explorer), Mac OS X, and Linux. It is written in PyQt (except the Windows shell extension), and the underlying client can be used on the command line. It is often recommended and preferred for working with Mercurial on Windows. This is a brief list of its features: * Repository explorer * Commit dialog * Support for visual diff/ merge tools. * Data mining on repository contents * Seamless support for serving a repository via Mercurial's integrated web interface. * Repository synchronization * Intuitive GUI for managing Mercurial settings It is free software released under the GNU General Public License. TortoiseHg can be used as a client to a git server. In June 2020, TortoiseHg moved off of bitbucket when they stopped hosting mercurial projects, and found a new home with heptapod.

TortoiseGit
TortoiseGit is a Git revision control client, implemented as a Windows shell extension and based on TortoiseSVN. It is free software released under the GNU General Public License. In Windows Explorer, besides showing context menu items for Git commands, TortoiseGit provides icon overlays that indicate the status of Git working trees and files. It also comes with the TortoiseGitMerge utility to visually compare two files and resolve conflicts.

Concurrent Versions System
Concurrent Versions System (CVS, or Concurrent Versioning System) is a version control system originally developed by Dick Grune in July 1986. Design CVS operates as a front end to Revision Control System (RCS), an older version control system that manages individual files but not whole projects. It expands upon RCS by adding support for repository-level change tracking, and a client-server model. Files are tracked using the same history format as in RCS, with a hidden directory containing a corresponding history file for each file in the repository. CVS uses delta compression for efficient storage of different versions of the same file. This works well with large text files with few changes from one version to the next. This is usually the case for source code files. On the other hand, when CVS is told to store a file as binary, it will keep each individual version on the server. This is typically used for non-text files such as executable images where it is difficult ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

TortoiseSVN
TortoiseSVN is a Subversion client, implemented as a Microsoft Windows shell extension, that helps programmers manage different versions of the source code for their programs. It is free software released under the GNU General Public License. TortoiseSVN won the SourceForge.net 2007 Community Choice Award for Best Tool or Utility for Developers. In Windows Explorer, besides showing context menu items for Subversion commands, TortoiseSVN provides icon overlay that indicates the status of Subversion working copies. It also comes with the TortoiseMerge utility, available from Tigris.org website, to visually compare two files. TortoiseSVN can be integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio by using a third-party plugin such as VsTortoise. A third-party repository monitoring application using TortoiseSVN was named SVN-Monitor, then evolved into Vercue in 2011. TortoiseSVN 1.9 and later requires at least Windows Vista or later.

Team Foundation Server
Azure DevOps Server, formerly known as Team Foundation Server (TFS) and Visual Studio Team System (VSTS), is a Microsoft product that provides version control (either with Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC) or Git), reporting, requirements management, project management (for both agile software development and waterfall teams), automated builds, testing and release management capabilities. It covers the entire application lifecycle and enables DevOps capabilities. Azure DevOps can be used as a back-end to numerous integrated development environments (IDEs) but is tailored for Microsoft Visual Studio and Eclipse on all platforms. On-premises vs. online Azure DevOps is available in two different forms: on-premises ("Server") and online ("Services"). The latter form is called Azure DevOps Services (formerly Visual Studio Online before it was renamed to Visual Studio Team Services in 2015). The cloud service is backed by the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. It uses the same ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Mercurial
Mercurial is a distributed revision control tool for software developers. It is supported on Microsoft Windows, Linux, and other Unix-like systems, such as FreeBSD and macOS. Mercurial's major design goals include high performance and scalability, decentralization, fully distributed collaborative development, robust handling of both plain text and binary files, and advanced branching and merging capabilities, while remaining conceptually simple. It includes an integrated web-interface. Mercurial has also taken steps to ease the transition for users of other version control systems, particularly Subversion. Mercurial is primarily a command-line driven program, but graphical user interface extensions are available, e.g. TortoiseHg, and several IDEs offer support for version control with Mercurial. All of Mercurial's operations are invoked as arguments to its driver program hg (a reference to Hg – the chemical symbol of the element mercury). Olivia Mackall originated Mercu ...
