connection to mercurial (hg) SCM ?
« on: February 15, 2010, 08:16:57 pm »
is there a way to connect to mercurial (hg) SCM to version control my .eap file ?

I know there's a connection to CVS ... but we have changed SCM for version controll.

Lars,

There is a generic SCC interface in EA. If your VC product supports this interface it should be possible to integrate them.

Laras,

The .EAP file is an MS Access DB - would you put an Access DB under source control?

HTH,

@Paolo, I was  a bit unclear, what I would like is of course to version control on a package level, not the Access DB.

Lars, I guessed as much, but I thought I'd leave the post as an indication to others.

BTW: if you do get mercurial going, can you post how you did it?  It will be interesting to compare the experience with a distributed versus a centralised SCM.
