I'm using perl and a Microsoft Access Database to implement a web site. (Not
my choice -- but it pays the bills).
I just added some new columns to the 10MB database. Now I'm using CVSNT to
store the perl code but not the Microsoft access database.
Should I add the Microsoft Access database to the repository? Since we don't
have any customers yet, there is not much interesting in the database except
the metadata. I really don't want to store a new copy of the Microsoft
Access database every time I commit. If I add the database with the -kb
option, will it store a new copy of the database every time I commit the
sandbox (assuming the database has been modified -- which is extremely
likely)?
I believe so.
This is a problem because if I ever change some field names or table names
in the database and need to role back, I won't have an old copy of the
database to match the code!
Well, this problem is not unique to Microsoft Access. What do other folks
do?
Thanks,
Siegfried
