    VERSION CONTROL By: Mohammad Habash

    SYSTEM
    TOPICS
     Understand the current development Strategy
     Why Version Control is needed
     What is Version Control System
     Types of Version Control Systems
     Repositories and archives
     Checking in and check out archives
     Reporting on archives
     Branching and merging archives
     Security
    THE STAGES OF
    DEVELOPING A
    SOFTWARE APPLICATION
     Requirements Analysis
     High-level Design
     [Plan (SE2800)]
     Low-level Design
     Implementation
     Unit Test (SE2832)
     Integration
     System Test (SE3800)
     Deploy (SDL)
     Maintain (SDL)
    IN MANY CASES, MULTIPLE
    PROJECTS RUN CONCURRENTLY
    New features are typically being
    added to the next version

    While at the same time, defects


    need to be corrected in existing
    releases

    You will do this more in SDL


    ON A SINGLE PROJECT, A TEAM OF
    SOFTWARE ENGINEERS WORK
    TOGETHER TOWARD A RELEASE
    All team members work on the same code and develop
    their respective parts

    An engineer may be responsible for an entire class

    Or just a few methods within a particular class


    FILES HAVE TO BE
    SHARED AMONG
    DEVELOPERS ON A TEAM
    Shared files can be kept in some
    typePROJECT
    of Repository where they
    can be accessed and worked on
    by multiple individuals

    Harry and Sally get their own respective


    local Working Copies of the Master File in
    the Repository
    WHAT MIGHT YOU USE FOR
    A REPOSITORY?
    Would any of these work?

    USB/SD drive

    Private network drive


     E.g. shared “X:” drive

    Cloud drive
     Google drive
     Dropbox
     iCloud
    SHARING FILES CAN LEAD
    TO BIG PROBLEMS…

    Adds some method Modifies some other method


    THE PROBLEM TO AVOID:

    Harry’s changes are still held locally…


    HARRY’S CHANGES ARE
    LOST
    ‘’

    Harry’s local file gets overwritten with


    Sally’s latest changes.

    ‘’
    WHY VERSION CONTROL
    IS NEEDED
    Version control systems provide users the ability to serialize changes
    to a given file.
    Most such systems also allow users to revert to an earlier form of a
    file.
    Anything can be stored under a good version control system
    including source code, documents, images, and binaries.
    SECURITY
    We often define basic security on our repository including:
     The users who can access the repository
     The abilities of that the users can exercise on the archives

    Different projects with their own repositories, might not allow developers
    from other projects access to their archives.
