Dear all,
i want to know about file versioning and how to insatll and work in my fedora 6 system

http://subversion.tigris.org/servlet...7&folderID=254 and http://www.subversionary.org/howto/s...-fedora-core-4 for Subversion (SVN) and http://www.nongnu.org/cvs/#documentation for CVS and http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/CVS-RCS-HOWTO.html for a short intro on how to use it or http://cyclic.com/cyclic-pages/books.html.

Hi.

A big picture of revision / version control can be seen in:

I often use rcs for very small, temporary projects (i.e. no directories), and my recent experience with bzr ("bazaar") suggests it can be used for that as well.

I advise people to avoid cvs for really active projects where re-factoring is done often because cvs does not deal well with structural changes. For such projects, svn ("subversion") is a far better choice. I don't know if bzr is available on Fedora, but there is a very brief, very useful tutorial on it at: http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/en/...ial/index.html

Best wishes ... cheers, makyo
