Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think SourceSafe allowed for versioning/branching, simply 'locking' a file until it was checked in, but I haven't used it for a while.
This is actually the basic functionality I'm looking for, and possibly what the OP requires too, I don't (currently) need versioning/branching just a way to ensure that I can't change some code being worked on by a colleague. Can CVS or Subversion operate in this 'basic' mode? If not, does anyone know of a free/open source app that provides this? Dreamweaver offers a simple locking functionality but would require all developers on a project to use Dreamweaver, which can get expensive and I would like each developer to be able to use the IDE they feel most comfortable with.

CVS is definitely something to check into. In addition to the Mac product mentioned before, Zend Studio and many other IDEs and editors have CVS compatibility built into them. CVS is similar to (but of course has differences to) Microsoft's Source Safe, if you're familiar with that product. (yeah, someone's going to hang me for making the comparison, but they serve the same function so I'm drawing a parallel). -TG > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Shiflett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 4:38 AM > To: Dave Carrera; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP] Two people working on the same app / script? > > > --- Dave Carrera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Is there a simple solution for two or more people to work on the > > same php app /script without it turning into a mess of many tar / > > zip files with contributed additions. > > Any version control system that supports concurrent > development will work > for this.
