Re: Subversion and RPG source change management

Rational Team Concert, which CAN be an SCM, can work with existing SVN repositories. - just and FYI

The free edition, however, does not, IIRC, have the build engine for IBM i stuff - I'm not sure, either, whether it has the i project support. The full product can be pricy, just as any of the SCMs can be.

Roll your own approach. Not for the faint of heart :-)

Ok. I was looking for a way to include my DDS and RPGLE code into an
existing svn repository. We use svn for everything else and the IBM i
stuff just sits sort of on its own outside the repository. It would be
nice to have all the source in one place. I'm not faint of heart, but I'm
also not convinced it is worth spending a lot of time on.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
