Hi, Riccardo. I think what you are going to find when your team starts using SourceJammer (or whatever source control system you choose) is that you are making a significant process change. Your developers will have to change their habits no matter what system you adopt. Source control is more than just a program that you use; it is a process and a mindset that you adopt.
One particular concept that I find helpful is to always think that the "real" or "official" copy of any file is the one that resides inside of the source control system. When a developer downloads or checks out a file from the source control system, they are really just making a copy. The real file is always the one locked away inside the vcs. Your developers are going to have to change their habits no matter what. They will have to get used to checking out files before they work on them and then checking them back in when their changes are complete. My opinion is that, in a single check out system like SourceJammer, developers should avoid making changes to a file that another developer has checked out at all costs. If another developer has checked out a file you need to work on, the best practice is to just give the other developer a call or send him/her an email and say "Hey, you done with that file yet?" If your team has fewer than 10 people and you're code is reasonably well organized, this system should work fine for you. --Rob --- Albert Moliner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello (and sorry for duplicating the email if you already belong to the users > list). > > Some more comments about it, although I agree very much with Stan views. > __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
