Well, well, well. CVS is a very powerful tool. I can ensure that good copies of software are kept track of so that if you mess something up you can revert. I also allows the creation of branches for projects that are either separating from the main project or for experimental modules to the large picture. It is extremely flexible in most every regard.
However, on occasion it can do everything but what you want it to. For the better portion of the day (prior to lunch) Steve and I worked with it to get it setup properly. It took this long to not only reteach ourselves how to use it, but to get our front-end (Cervisia) to work with us instead of against us. Consequently we did not spend as much time on our actual work.
This however is not a big issue, looking at the large picture, because this is something that we need in place, and could save us even more time down the line. That being said, though it seemed as though we wasted a lot of time today, it WAS IN FACT a big step in the right direction. I am looking forward to more software implementations that will increase productivity and security of information in the months to come. In that respect the should be a plethora of new software integrations.
