Source Control/Version Control for AVR projects

2011-10-24 by Chuck Hackett

One of my AVR projects has grown to a significant number of files and
complexity.  I also need to track multiple versions installed in the field,
multiple development/bug fix lines, etc. so I'm looking for a Source/Version
Control package to manage it.

 

This is for single developer only and is restricted to one development PC
(Windows 7, 64-bit) so I don't need features for remote hosted repository,
cooperative development, etc. (but if there, I may use them in the future).

 

My primary tools are: CodeBlocks for development IDE, WinAVR compiler and
AVRStudio for debugging.

 

Checkin/checkout integrated into CodeBlocks would be nice but is not a
requirement.

 

At the moment I am trying out CS-RCS Pro (free version) by Component
Software as recommended by a white paper I found on AVR Freaks and it works
ok but there may be something better out there that I should look at before
I commit a lot of time and versions to it.

 

I also develop programs using Microsoft Visual C# as part of this project
(PC program that communicates with the field AVR based devices) so it would
be a plus if I could use the same package to support Visual C# projects.

 

Any recommendations of packages I should look at? 

 

Thanks in advance for your time .

 

Cheers,
