Ok, I'll be a bit more specific. I am trying to figure out
best practices for managing software in a team environment.
Currently we are using CVS for revision control. There is
no defined way to release software, besides cutting a formal
release via CVS and tar'ing it up. I just finished a
project and have created a release in CVS. I then exported
the software to a directory in /tmp where I built a Solaris
package. Should the package stream be checked into the
repository as well? Should it be under the same CVS
module? Even after I cut a formal release (branch and base
tags)? Does anyone have any suggestions for selecting
version numbers? Are README and CHANGES files sufficient
for proper documentation? I guess I'm just not aware of how
release management is done in other shops. Any feedback
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
