Happy CVS upgrade
By Guipei on 2005-3-30 in hainan
As the user of the software, it always wants to simply migrate the system to the new version. However, as many cases, the system upgrade does not have a simple and easy. Just as the program in JDK14, it is not possible to run in JDK13, and the system developed by DOT NET 1.0 is not compatible with DOT NET 1.1.
I finally went to CVSNT this time, because Eclipse has 2 upgrades to 3, did not think that CvsNT actually and Eclipse3 is so incompatible, can not view the historical version, and cannot view the tag version. This is the problem of upgrading the version control brought by Eclipse, balancing Eclipse3 and CVS, I decided to find the CVS server that can be compatible with Eclipse3. It doesn't turn our Eclipse to the old system because of the version of the problem.
There is no problem with the upgrade. After the normal use method, CVS is configured on the Fedora server, and it feels very satisfied with the perfect combination of Eclipse3. But the problem came out, because the project development has taken a long time, how to move the previous version to the existing system? This is a problem with the upgrade. When CVSNT is updated, it can easily migrate the project catalog, and do not know if the data data in CVSNT is compatible with CVS. I tried to copy the CVSNT data below the Window under the CVS inside Linux, it is very happy that it can be used normally, it is a great pleasure. Excited experiments with various operations of CVS, not only the historical version of each file saved, but the original saved version mark can also be used normally.
Really let me happy, I think CvsNT must be strictly followed by the CVS version format to store the storage of various data, and there is no extension of itself. This makes me think of the importance of the standard, maybe if all the criteria can be so normative, then we can do a set of IE systems when we do not need to develop, and then do a Firefox system.
Due to the urgency of time, after this test, immediately go to the Hainan business trip, no CVS data can be used well by CVSNT. I remember when I was obsessed with Borland, I loved Interbase, if someone asked me why. I will be very happy to tell him, do you know the interbase special function, binary data is compatible. That is to say, copy the interbase database file below Windows to Linux, you can use it. I am very happy to be the same in the CVS, but I didn't see these instructions above what documents, because I didn't check a lot of related documents. Just is the reason for interest, I have made me test.
