Recent Q&A Activity

In practice I have two new features that are under change control and that I want to be able to track them as separate changes from the first change and until the features are deployed to production.
 
How do I handle the fact that they both need to make the same changes to one part of the code? If I let one of them carry the change but then decides later on to back out of that “Feature” then I  will break the other feature that where depending on the same change. 
 

How can we use metadata to control checkouts in a CM tool?
I.E. Is there a tool which will allow us to identify connections such that, Iif I check out object "A" the the tool will force the checkout of Items "B" and "C" as well.

Hi guys,

I need some expert guidance on svn's branch management.

Hello All ,

I am looking for a solution on how can we monitor the traffic received on UDP ports ( preferably through Nagios)

As per our setup , we are using Data Diode for highly secure unidirectional flow . There is a backend third party application which is sending data and it comes through data diode to the top layer on specific UDP port ( dual node active-active setup for high availability ) .

Now sometimes we fall in the situation when one of the data diode leg stop working which ultimately impacts the overall  data flow .

Currently we using basic version of CVS & SVN. Plan to switch to better SCM tools so thought of few options git/svn/perforce/mercurial, skipped clearcase because of its pricing.

My company has a strength of 200 developers. No multi-site, we use Bugzilla as defect tracking tool.We are open for paid tools if they suite to be best among all. But not as high paying to clearcase :)

Things which i wish to consider-
1) Easy merging
2) if PM is add-on then great
3) Easy adaptability for dev

Experts, can you share your views.

Is anyone aware of a publication where guidlines are provided for helping determine the number of administrators needed for supporting a specific SCM Tool given a number of developers?

Project to be performed in 2 equally complex phases, each phase to deliver to production about 4 months apart.  The project has been identified as 8.0.  Our baseline naming convention says change the first number for a major enhancement/upgrade.  If the first baseline is named to coincide with the project (8.0), then what name/identifier do I give to the baseline when phase 2 is ready?

Hello

 

We have Subversion 1.8 (installed at linux centos).

We do backup using Backup tools that do backup from all filesystem. If we have problems, we can restore from backup just directories relatred to a defined repository that had problems.

 

It is a bad solution? If yes, why?

 

Should we use svn dump or we could keep doing backup using our method?

best regards

I would like to know of the latest releases of Rational DOORS, Rational Synergy and Rational Change is Windows Server 2012 compliant.
