This document discusses installing and using the Concurrent Versions System (CVS) version control software. It describes CVS as a version control system that allows developers to track changes to files over time. The document then provides steps for installing CVS on Windows by first installing Cygwin to enable CVS functionality. It explains downloading and installing msysgit to get Git version control capabilities. After installation, the document describes basic Git commands and setting up a GitHub account to host code repositories remotely.
Concurrent Version Systems
- 1. Concurrent Versions System Submitted by : Katyayni Singh Computer Science and Engg. 3rd year 0910410028
- 2. CVS is a version control system, an important component of Source Configuration Management (SCM). Using it, you can record the history of sources files, and documents. CVS may be used in any platform/OS, such as windows, linux, macOS etc. In windows we require cygwin for using CVS.
- 3. It is based on client-server architecture. Version control system software keeps track of all work and all changes in a set of files, and allows several developers (potentially widely separated in space and/or time) to collaborate.
- 4. There are many tools for CVS in windows, such as: tortoiseCVS, git etc. Here we are installing git. The steps are as follows: Download cygwin.exe for http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe Install cygwin in default cases.
- 7. It is to remember that local root directory should be c:program filesmozila firefox
- 8. Click on ‘next’ for every other step. Next thing is to choose a download site from the list to download packages.
- 9. After downloading, select all(by default) packages.
- 10. After completing installation of cygwin click on the ‘finish’ button.
- 11. After installing cygwin, now download msysgit exe file from http://www.git-scm.com/download. While installing git, the points worth remembering are: Destination location should be ‘c:program filesgit’where should setup be installed The select start menu folder should be ‘Git’ where the setup place the program’s shortcut
- 14. Installation continues… Adjust your path environment to ‘run Git from windows command prompt
- 15. Installation continues… On completing installation click on the ‘finish’ button.
- 16. After installation both i.e. cygwin and Git, we can see that there are shortcut icons have been created on our desktop.
- 17. On double clicking ‘Git Bash’ icon, we get the window as in given picture:
- 18. Now the next step is to create an account on the ‘Github - the social coding center’. The url is http://github.com/plans
- 19. As visible here, SSH key is not necessary for signup.
- 20. After signing up, first thing we are to do is to create a repository (where you’ll put your project)
- 21. Introducing yourself to Git:
- 23. Now on seeing in our system, (by default) in c:documents and settingsadministrator, We get the ‘jasontest’, in this we can open readme.
- 24. We can also update the readme, can add new files as well in ‘jaontest’ directory.
- 32. That’s all, how we use Git as a Control Version System. Everything you do is going to end up going the folder ‘jasontest’ or the repository you’ve created.
- 33. Thank you… queries???
