sep-26-98 Release of alpha version tree tool
What is PFE?
PFE is a friendly front end to the PRCS version control system. It will
consist mainly of a file browser and version tree tools. From within these
tools, most of the PRCS operations can be performed, such as merging, displaying
diffs, adding new files to projects, etc. Users should never have to enter
the prcs info command or hand edit a .prj file again.
Okay, So What is PRCS?
PRCS is a pretty decent version control system that I find much better
than CVS, RCS, or any of the others out there. You can look at the PRCS
homepage. The biggest drawback I see with PRCS is a lack of a decent
interface. PFE hopes to remedy that.
The Tools
File Browser
This tool is not complete.
Version Tree
The version tree tool displays the output from prcs info -l in
tree form. When projects get large, this is visually superior.
For more information, read the README.txt.
Snapshots
Here is a portion of the tuba version tree: SNAPSHOT.
Here is the complete tree for sage, but I used the -s option to show
only the important versions: SNAPSHOT.
