Hello,
Since branching is the most complicated of the basic source control activities,
I have a question regarding large scale development strategies. What kind of
branch management strategies are more commonly used for Web-based live
environment projects? 1. Task Branches off the trunk or 2. Integration Branches
off the Trunk or a different combination.
Our development effort includes 20-25 developers, a large CVS repository with
multiple projects and tens of thousands of lines of code. Currently we use
simple branching and work on both the branch, the head and other branches if
necessary. The same code changes go into multiple branches. How do we go about
reducing the development effort and restricting developers to make changes only
on a certain branch? Or do we change our branch management
strategy?
Any input greatly
appreciated, Thanks.
