Boy am I am tired this morning. Stayed up way past my bedtime reading the draft of Dave Thomas and Andy Hunt's new book called 'Pragmatic Version Control'. In fact, I overslept and missed the Spider's Geek book club this morning.
Back to Pragmatic Version Control - I met Dave at the local No-fluff-just-stuff Java symposium and he talked about the new books they he and Andy were working on. Having no life, I offered up my services to review the new book. (This is a confidential draft and so please don't me email asking for a copy.
Thank you). I've read the book cover-to-cover twice already in the last week and I am really impressed with this book. I don’t want to give anything away as I haven’t seen anything official on the book at the Pragmatic site yet. This book is aimed at programmers who are new to version control and has a great tutorial on CVS, which was really helpful as I'm relatively new to CVS. Years of PVCS, Clear Case and Visual Source Safe has taken its toll
Looking forward to the final release of the book.
On a related topic, I download SmartCVS last week after I read someone blogging about it and it is a really impressive tool. In minutes, I had the entire Jakarta commons CVS archive downloaded on my PC. Great interface and the usability is just great.
