Hi, I'm interested in a version control software who runs in UNIX. I have my source code files in unix directories and I want to maintain multiple versions of source code, and to control the source code changes to avoid the risk of overwriting the changes of diferents developers. Also I want to know the diferences in my source code files between test environment and production environment. One possible solutions is to make a unix script who scan all the test directories with source code files and compared them (a diff command for example) with production files, as a result I have a list of all diferences in source code between test and production. ¿Anybody have a script similar to this? Any advice or recomendations about this kind of software will be greatly apreciatted. Thanks in advance

check out CVS

is a free software?? where can I get it? thanks

Thanks for the help! CVS is a solution to concurrent changes in source code. I want another thing: how to compare the source code files beetwen test environment and production/real environment. How to get a list of diferences. anybody know a solution?? Thanks in advance

Perhaps you need something similiar to Tripwire: http://www.tripwire.com/ Tripwire works by taking a base snapshot of the directory structure and comparing it to a later snapshot. But you want something more specialized. You want to compare one directory against another directory. I don't know of any tool available that does what you want. However, there is a Sys Admin article available that emualtes Tripwire: http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9426/sam0412j/0412j.htm With the source available, perhaps you could modify it to fit your needs.
