Re: Subversion and RPG source change management

What is the added value of keeping the "change date area" in the source if
you have Subversion to inspect your source differences?
See how easy it is in RDI to click "Compare with: Base revision" or others.
If you get used to that, you'll never get back on the "change date area".

WDSC stores source in the IFS as a text file with the line number and
change date as the first 12 characters of each line. When sending changes
up there must be a way for it to manage that. Probably deletes all the
records from the member and inserts the new records as they are stored in
the file. This is different from how CPYF works with source files. I
suspect that what we need to use is an RPG program, or find the one that
already exists for WDSC, and use that to get the source to the iSeries
without loosing line numbers and date stamps.

I know uploading source in the standard manner will not work.
