I am new to version control and wanted to really know if cvsnt will satisfy our needs. We are a small shop of a handful of Oracle developer working on about 600 modules of forms and reports. These modules are considered binary files by cvs. I am also using tortoisecvs as the front end. I am testing this setup before rolling it out to the developers. My main issue is that the update function will not merge changes from two developers since the files are considered binary (and I am not expecting it to do so). My questions are 1- Does every developer has to checkout the whole respository and then update the files before working on them? 2-How can a developer know that someone else is working on the same files? 3-Should I enforce locking since the files are binary? How do I go about that? 4-I appreciate general instructions on how my shop can use cvsnt? Thanks in advance Haitham
