I would like to add my current StrataFrame solution to VisualSVN.  Will I run into any problems with that?

Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill.

I've tried VisualSVN, and it seemed OK for a start. Didn't have any problem related to StrataFrame with SVN, but with the SVN environment itself. Probably for my lack of knowledge, don't know.

Then, I went to SouceGear Vault. Been using it for some months now, easy to use, everything on the SQLServer, also integrates well into VisualStudio, not so expensive as TeamSystem, a dream to become true some day...

This wasn't of much help, I know... just sharing some experience with you. Wink

Cheers.

I've been using SVN for about a year now with no problems. I use TortoiseSVN (from within Windows Explorer) a lot more than I use the VS add-in (AnkhSVN in my case). I use the apache server, as I work remotely, thus need a secure connection. It works great. The price is definitely right too BigGrin

Guys, thanks a lot for the input.  Much appreciated.  VisualSVN is built on the TortoiseSVN shell (yup...purposeful pun there).  I employed that baby on my StrataFrame solution.  So far, so good.  No hiccups yet. 

I will take a look at AnkhSVN (sp?).  Not heard of that.  I really like the TortoiseSVN structure.  Very simple and very thorough.  Fortunately, I am alone in my development for the most part, so I do not need a more extensive structure.  Keeping costs down is necessary, but so is having the code tracked for me.  A simple revert changes has saved my hide several times.

Have a great day!
Bill

Ankh is open source. It has taken a while to figure out how to use it effectively. I mainly use it to automatically add new items to SVN (i.e. when I add a new object in VS, Ankh does the work of adding it to SVN). I do most of my work in Tortoise (commits, tags, branching, merges, repository management etc.). However, it sounds like VisualSVN is nicer...it just isn't free.

But it is rather inexpensive.  Fifty bucks well spent.  Smile

Yep, I'm going to look into it. One of the things that is currently a pain is renaming items within VS. Ankh doesn't cut it. I currently have to exclude the item from the project, go to tortoise (explorer), do the rename, then back to VS and include it again, then update the class name to match the file name. Not horrible, but sounds like VisualSVN makes this easy. BigGrin

Yeah, it's just a source control manager, so you shouldn't have any problems using it with StrataFrame... really you can use any source control you want; it doesn't matter.
