P4! (Score:1)

by jmason (3282)

perforce rocks. It's got a great web GUI, and it can do the best automated merges of any SCM tool I've used. Most importantly, it's really well supported, great company, open mailing lists, etc. Arch -- sounds good -- like p4 it does good automated merges. However I've heard negative things about the maintainer's attitude etc. This is a thumbs-down for me. svn -- good in all respects except for automated merges. Nowadays, I'd use p4 for a commercial project or svn for a free one.

  What Justin said.
  
  p4's merging magic is awesome. I hope SVN will get there some day too.
  
  Running the SVN server on Apache 2.0 gives you all the usual Apache-framework goodies (authentication modules etc) and is well worth it IMO.
