Codeville Description

A free and open source distributed version control system Codeville began with a novel idea for a merge algorithm and has grown from there. Codeville is designed to be easy to use and easily scale from small personal projects to very large distributed ones. Here are some key features of "Codeville": · Simple and robust merge algorithm with proven effectiveness · Well stressed branching and merging with no restrictions · Good performance, even on very large projects · Powerful diffing and history browsing commands · File and directory renaming which correctly handles all (and there are plenty) corner cases and conflicts · Cross platform, runs on all major platforms · Released as open source Strong authentication: · SRP authentication means you will not expose your password to remote servers by accident · HMAC codes to protect against connection hijacking · agent so you don't have to type your password all the time Disconnected operation: · History browsing and diffing · Changeset creation for later commit Immutable and verifiable history: · Extensive use of hashes including all of the following · Internal identifiers for files and directories · File deltas · Change numbers Simple user interface: · Almost trivial to use for personal projects without running a server · Keeps client/server model for those familiar with non-distributed systems · Transparently extends the client/server model to the distributed case, repositories are all referred to by URL · Simpler branching and merging than CVS, it "just works" · Basic set of commands with rich functionality · File name wildcard '...' can be used instead of futzing with the unix 'find' command Requirements: · PyBSDDB · Python
