Suffice to say there is now a document in place and I'm the drill sergeant, harassing people to do proper check in, and throw out those who don't.
Some people suggest that in a SSIS project, it doesn't really matter if developers don't have the latest version of the project since package check in put the package in the repository, which we can pull out later. I beg to differ because:
- When people don't see the package, they might start creating one because their user story require the use of the table. So they will proceed to create a package and override whatever might already be in the repository.
- I didn't really see anywhere in the repository to say that which packages were for "deletion". So I ended up restoring them all, and send the list out to developers. Then we get into the area where we are relying on people's memory.
I'd love to hear other people's experience using Subversion to manage a BI project.
