&TCAR; is supported by

3c5068 |
url="http://subversion.tigris.org/">Subversion</ulink>, a
|
|
|
3c5068 |
version control system which allows you to keep old versions
|
|
|
3c5068 |
of files and directories (usually source code), keep a log of
|
|
|
3c5068 |
who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like CVS, RCS or
|
|
|
3c5068 |
SCCS.

&TCAR; is made of one <quote>source repository</quote> and
|
|
|
3c5068 |
many <quote>working copies</quote> of that source repository.
|
|
|
3c5068 |
The working copies are independent one another, can be
|
|
|
3c5068 |
distributed all around the world and provide a local place for
|
|
|
3c5068 |
designers, documentors, translators and programmers to perform
|
|
|
3c5068 |
their work in a descentralized way. The source repository, on
|
|
|
3c5068 |
the other hand, provides a central place for all independent
|
|
|
3c5068 |
working copies to interchange data and provides the
|
|
|
3c5068 |
information required to permit extracting previous versions of
|
|
|
3c5068 |
files at any time.
