版本控制系统C＃

Question

I'm working on a C# app that uses SQL 2008 express. Sometimes I work at home and the most of the time at my office so there is no way to work in the same network. Everytime I change location, I need to save the project in my USB and update files in my home/office computer, so I find this a little bit frustrating.

Do you know a version control software which could let me do this without using my USB? something like SVN where I could only update my repository to have the most recent version? What about changes in the database? is there a way to keep this updated?

Answer 1

The scenario you describe is well covered by Mercurial or Git . You can use some online repository to store your work, like GitHub or BitBucket . In any case you should create some strategy for of automatic deployment of the DB.

Answer 2

Just you? Try dropbox and work from the same folder. It holds a 30-day history for free and syncs files automatically... It is much more convenient than source control for one user.

Answer 3

There is plenty of free SVN hosting (google code for instance) if you don't care that it's open source. There are plenty of SVN clients that integrate right into visual studio (One that I use and suggest would be AnkhSVN). If you DB is on the local computer you're developing, you won't be much luck--but consider moving to a remote location.

Answer 4

版本控件只是跟踪存储库中的更改（无论如何我还是建议您使用GitHub）。对于数据库，如果您编写数据库脚本，则可以将脚本文件放入存储库中并将其推送到源控件中（您没有谈谈您的数据库策略）

Answer 5

You could combine dropbox with SVN. Create your SVN repository at whichever location you work at more, then check the code out to your dropbox folder. You can then work from both work and home without having to carry your files with you, and you can keep your code in source control.

You won't be able to commit or get latest from your off-location, but that shouldn't be a problem given that dropbox is going to automatically back-up your files for you. Just make sure to do your commit first thing when you get to your main location.

Answer 6

Some sort of publicly hosted source control like Github or Bitbucket may work, but honestly for things that I'm just hacking on in a few differnet places, I just use DropBox. Store your working copy of hte project in a DropBox folder, and when you get home it's automagically synced.

You may wish to host your own gitolite - at work or via dyndns at home - and have your develop branch on that one. Maybe you already have a Team Foundation Server at work already, then you could use that one.
