(sprinzl@edvz.tuwien.ac.at) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subject: What version control systems are available on UNIX Date: 29 Mar 1993 Originally collected by: media01!rla@relay.nluug.nl (Raymond van der Laan) (see also the archive file "cmtools") SCCS is free and comes with most Unix-distribution, ported to everything and its brother. It is no longer being enhanced or improved. Clumsy and not suited to many users working on the same project. Many people place scripts around the various SCCS commands to help the user. RCS, better than SCCS, but still requires scripts to make life easier on the developer. Originally by Walter Tichy (now at Karlsruhe) and still maintained by Purdue (rcs-bugs@cs.purdue.edu); available on the GNU distribution, widely ported, and free. Available via anonymous FTP from several sources: site filename ftp.cs.ruu.nl /pub/GNU/rcs-5.6.tar.Z cs.purdue.edu pub/RCS/rcs.5_6.tar.Z prep.ai.mit.edu pub/gnu/rcs-5.6.tar.Z ftp.uu.net packages/gnu/rcs-5.6.tar.Z ftp.virginia.edu pub/vms/*.zoo (VAX VMS version) It works best with GNU diff 2.0; look for diff-2.0.tar.Z. Many case tools interface with RCS. CVS extends RCS to control concurrent editing of sources by several users working on releases built from a hierarchical set of directories. "RCS is assembly language, CVS is Pascal", according to the author. Brian Berliner's CVS 1.3 C version is in cvs-1.3.tar.Z at MIT and UUnet. Dick Grune's original shell script version, CVS 3.0, is available at RUU. Berliner (berliner@Sun.COM) and Jeff Polk (polk@BSDI.COM) continue to maintain CVS; the 1.3 release was in April 1992. The shape toolkit (ShapeTools) is a set of commands for change control, developed by Axel Mahler, Andreas Lampen and others at the Technical University of Berlin. It consists of a repository (the Attributed File System), version control programs, a build driver (compatible with make), release management system, and EMACS editor interface. ShapeTools 1.3 was released in late May 1992; it runs on many UNIX variants. It's available from site file coma.cs.tu-berlin.de pub/shapeTools/shapeTools-1.3.tar.Z gatekeeper.dec.com pub/plan/shapeTools-1.3.tar.Z gatekeeper has a mail archive server; send a message to ftpmail@gatekeeper.dec.com whose body contains the single line "help". Aegis is a project change supervisor distributed under the GNU piblic licence. CVS provides a repository; aegis provides a repository, a baseline, mandatory reviews and mandatory testing. It's available via anonymous ftp from: Host: ftp.nau.edu (134.114.64.70) Dir: /pub/Aegis File: aegis.1.3.tar.Z # the complete source File: aegis.1.3.patch.Z # patch to take 1.2 to 1.3 File: aegis.1.3.ps.Z # PostScript of the User Guide Many large and expensive case-tools exist which have version control in them. (Teamwork, Backplane) All VCS we know about are file-based. Database-oriented VCS's do not seem to exist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subject: Other configuration Management tools Date: 28 Apr 1993 Originally collected by: rene@Cadence.COM (Rene Churchill) and zdlc03@trc.amoco.com (Dan L. Cummings) DSEE (pronounced dizzy) [Domain Software Engineering Environment] by Apollo (now HP) is an excellent program that has excellent version control and does builds for the user. These builds can be easily customized to a specific purpose and spread out over several different machines simultaneously. Excellent for large development projects. Problem: Cannot be ported to other machines. Uses non-standard facilities of Domain/OS; David Lubkin of the DSEE Project says it will be available on other operating systems, at least HP's OSF offering. I don't know their main phone number, but their help line could get you in touch with somebody. (1-800-227-6556) ClearCase, by Atria software (see vendor list) runs on Silicon Graphics, HP, and Sun systems. It was influenced by DSEE. For SGI machines, it's available through regular SGI sales channels (US customers can call 1-800-800-SGI1). Softool Corp. sells a "Family of change and configuration control products" The literature looks good. This program does code control, builds, merging and other items that look good for group projects. It has also been ported to DEC, IBM, Sun HP, Harris, and IBM PC computers. It's been around for a long time, so it's a very mature product. Softool Corp.; 340 S. Kellogg Ave.; Goleta, CA 93117 (805) 683-5777 Imperial Software Technology Limited sells some CASE tools that do builds and manage source code. The literature is not that glossy, and the impression I got was of a immature set of programs. I also sent them a fax and email and have yet to get a response. (6+ months) Imperial Software Technology Ltd.; 95 London Street; Reading RG1 4QA United Kingdom Phone: 0734-587055 (add England country code) Usenet: apg@ist.co.uk Aide-de-Camp is another good looking product from its literature. Sounds very mature and has many good feature mentioned above. Rather than independent versions of each file, it stores which groups of files change together: a nice idea for tracking widespread changes. Software Maintenance & Development Systems, Inc. PO Box 555; Concord, MA 01742 (508) 369-7398 Procase is an interesting database for code control. It creates a database of all of your code and will display call graphs and other very fancy functions. It requires you to use its editor, rather than vi or emacs (though it does have emulation modes for them) It has a very impressive user interface, just not enough flexibility for me.

DTM: DEC Test Manager; Automated scripting tool for performing tests of software, creating benchmarks and helping with regression testing PCA: Performance and Coverage Analyzer - Allows for program analysis. Validates path coverage of testing. All these product are operational on VAX VMS platforms. Additionally there is the interactive debugger, the Common Data Dictionary (repository), DEC Design, DEC Plan, and other tools. CaseWare/CM (formerly Amplify Control) from CaseWare, Inc. is an interactive development environment emphasizing configuration management and tool integration. It provides user-modifiable graphical and non-graphical user interfaces. The graphical interfaces supports Motif. It also supports several configuration management methodologies via its flexible object- oriented data modeling. They supply a generic software process model, which you can customize. The related CaseWare/PT problem tracking system is driven from the same configration management database. (see vendor list for address). CMZ is a code manager for C and Fortran; besides version archiving, it also provides many editing, checking, and library management functions. It currently runs on Apollo, IBM VM/CMS, IBM MVS, IBM RS/6000, VAX/VMS, Ultrix, Gould UTX, Cray Unicos, Sun, SGI, HPUX. All European High Energy Physics laboratories will get it from CERN; others must pay a licence fee. Contact codeme@cernapo.cern.ch. SMS from Intasoft [see vendor list] runs on PCs, Unix and VAXen. Facilities include source code control, a preprocessor, a build tool and a menu driven front end. I find it very usable, it is reasonably priced and it has all the facilities I need. nyo@dcs.ex.ac.uk (Neil Youngman) "Merge Ahead" is not a full fledged Version or Configuration mangement tool, but it addresses one of the most important parts of such systems, support for management and integration of multiple versions and releases. While Merge Ahead does not provide check-in and check-out it is designed to work closely with other tools that do: integrations for RCS and SCCS are contributed, and integrations to CASEWare/CM and Atherton Technology Software BackPlane re supported by those vendors. Integrations to other CM tools (Atria ClearCase, TeamOne TeamNet, etc.) and even custom and internal tools are easy--even if files are versioned only by different names or extensions. Merge Ahead is available from: Prescient Software, Inc. (see vendor list) RAZOR from Tower Concepts, Inc (see vendor list) is an easily tailored configuration management system with an integrated problem tracking system. It offers control and coordination of file versioning and product build management. The graphical interface is built on OpenLook. Its easily parsed ASCII database encourages users to generate their own scripts for report generation and process control.
