Version control on a team project
Hi everyone,
I am interested in ways to professionally reduce conflicts and file over-writing. Those who customize X-Cart as a team should have faced this challenge. Also, having different version with ability to rollback would have been great.
I see that when we are working on X-Cart templates, usually home.tpl, skin1.css gets affected by more than one programmer. On the other hand, when we modify functionality, the func.php, cart.php are generally the concern.
There should be professional ways to deal with this.
We use linux server but Windows XP workstations (use dreamweaver mx to edit and SSH to upload\download the file changes to server).
I have heard a CVS Server can be the solution. I also heard of tools like TortoiseCVS.
But, I am not clear if this is the right way. Please help.
