Earlier this week I drew up a list of what I wanted from an ideal revision control system. Reading it a day or two later, it looked like basically
subversion with a little
perforce added.
So today I got onto subversion. Once you get the hang of it, creating and using a SVN repository is preposterously easy. There's even extra feaures that I never thought of, but I can see the use of them. E.G. the "blame" feaure will give you for each line in a file, the person who last altered it. Heh.
So I made a repository for Mandala on my machine's E: drive, and checked it out to C:Code\Mandala_SVN\. Revision tracking and a backup on a second hard drive: Excellent. Oh, and I made
a new version of Mandala.. The bitmap dump works and the spirals are a bit more varied.
Dr Who was a great story, with the hot and brainy
Madame de Pompadour haunted! By robots! Somewhat sad on the transience of time, especially when the people you know use short cuts through it. But Dr. Who seems to stick to orthodox chronology, they avoid the loops like "this is the first time that you've met me, but the third time that I've met you" or "you spoke to me last March? Oh well, then, I'd better go back and chat to you then."
Reading Jeanne-Antoinette Poisson's bio on Wikipedia again, it seems that they glossed over a lot. Oh well.
