Re: "Concurrent" VS...

I think the problem any VC system is supposed to solve is to prevent multiple
people from editing the same file at the same time.  CVS does this.  Instead,
people edit different copies of the same file at the same time.  The first
person to checkin succeeds.  CVS will prevent checkins by others and will
display a message saying that they'll have to perform a merge (via cvs update).

Subject:  "Concurrent" VS...




Requiring Version Control, I have installed CVS for evaluation. (I
have used SCCS in the past but systems are different here now.)

One of my principal reasons for using a VC system is to avoid the
version discrepancies that arise from two separate developers
inadvertently editing the same file at the same time.

Have I selected the wrong VC system?

Cheers,
James.
