Hi All,
In my company, presently we are using Rational clearcase as the Software Configuration Management tool for our Embedded software development. The software is basically for Automobiles, to be specific for Engines (I dont think these information really matters). But I find Clearcase to be very slow is performing any the activities (accesing files, branching and labelling), in addition to which there are various other limitations.
We have recently decided to research on some free & open source, distributed version control system which could be able to handle our large projects with speed and efficiency. This tool should be a full-fledged repository with complete history and full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access or a central server. Branching and merging are fast and easy to do. It should have multisite development facility.
With these above mentioned requirement, we have come up with some of the tools that are presently available in the market:
GIT, Mercurial, Bazaar, Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and Visual SourceSafe.
I need everybody's help in finding me an approrpiate SCM tool for me which meets the above mentioned requirements.
Thanking you in Advance, Rahamath.
