BACFUG - October 15th - Sean Corfield - Subversion: Better Living Through Branches

October 12, 2008 · 2 Comments

I'll be reprising my Wee Dram talk for BACFUG this week:
By now you've heard a dozen times that source code control is good for you. Perhaps you're already reaping the benefits of tracking code changes in a separate system that is nicely backed up. You've heard about tags and branches - most talks touch on them - but you haven't really figured out how to leverage these features to improve your life. Come and find out how the engineering team at Broadchoice use branches and tags in Subversion as part of their daily life to manage parallel development, automate deployment across multiple environments and deal with the complexities involved. At the end of this talk, you should be prepared to introduce more advanced use of Subversion into your own workplace to help streamline team development.
Barring technical problems, the talk will be both broadcast and recorded - details on the BACFUG website. Please RSVP via the BACFUG website!

    Hi Sean,

    I'm extremely interested in hearing about implementing Subversion and I'd like to participate via the broadcast - rather than driving into San Francisco.
    Do I need to register to attend via Connect Pro? Or just log in at 6:30 pm?
    I am in a shop using Subversion and we're going to be using branching for our next iterations.
    Thanks, and see you at Max!
