How can CS-RCS Help You ?
|
Top Previous Next |
| · | Retrieve any revision using any criteria, anytime. Each revision is marked with a unique revision number, revision date, author name, optional symbolic name, and descriptive comment.
|
| · | Easily see the changes made between any two revisions. You can review the development of a file throughout its lifetime.
|
| · | Never lose any work because you can always backtrack. This is critical when there is a deadline and the last revision is preferable.
|
| · | Work with binary files. You can maintain revisions of binary files such as Microsoft Word documents, pictures, drawings, etc.
|
| · | Work with projects. You can apply RCS commands to the whole project, assign project milestones and apply related operations.
|
| · | Work with standard Windows applications. CS-RCS is seamlessly integrated with Microsoft Word and many Windows development tools.
|
| · | Save disk space. Since only the differences between revisions are saved, the archive file size is kept to a minimum.
|
| · | Work in parallel. CS-RCS supports unlimited concurrent lines of development (branches) and performs automatic merging when possible (Pro edition only).
|
|
|
| · | Know who does what and when. This simplifies communication between users, and smoothes the entire development process.
|
| · | Avoid two users modifying the same file at the same time. CS-RCS maintains a "lock" on each file. Optionally, each user can maintain a distinct working area ("sandbox") for editing and testing.
|
| · | Know when there is an updated revision of a shared document. CS-RCS notifies you whenever a co-worker checks-in a new revision.
|
| · | Use a variety of servers and networks. Any file server can be used to keep the RCS archive files.
|
| · | Share files between different development teams or mobile workers. Your network connection can be a LAN, corporate wide-area network, dial-up connection or the Internet.
|
| · | Share common files for users on UNIX and Windows machines. This option increases reusability and stability of products that target both UNIX and Windows platforms.
|
| · | Transparently convert text files from UNIX-to-DOS and DOS-to-UNIX. CS-RCS takes care of the line-break sequence which differs for UNIX and Windows/DOS files.
