Synopsis

CVS and source code management for networked groups is presented topic-by-topic, from the introduction to expert-level use. The book examines open source software development from a design and organization standpoint and explains how CVS affects the architecture and design of applications. The popular first edition was one of the first books available on development and implementation of open source software using CVS. The second edition has been enhanced with more value-added material covering strategies, third-party tools, scalability, client access limits, and overall server administration for CVS. In order to practice what we preach, some chapters of this book are also available online under the GNU General Public License.
