Aegis is a transaction-based software configuration management system. It
|
||
|
|
provides a framework within which a team of developers may work on many
|
||
|
|
changes to a program independently, and Aegis coordinates integrating these
|
||
|
|
changes back into the master source of the program, with as little disruption
|
||
|
|
as possible. Some key features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* All operations on the repository are based on change sets.
|
||
|
|
* True configurations. All changes are reproducible snapshots. Every change
|
||
|
|
set has a unique configuration identifier.
|
||
|
|
* Ability to rename files without losing their history.
|
||
|
|
* Binary files are supported.
|
||
|
|
* File meta-data are versioned. Aegis versions permissions also.
|
||
|
|
* Commits are truly atomic. No part of a commit takes effect until the entire
|
||
|
|
commit has succeeded. Log messages are attached to the change set, not
|
||
|
|
stored redundantly in each file.
|
||
|
|
* Access controls on lines of development (branches). Creating a branch in
|
||
|
|
Aegis can be accomplished with a single, fast command.
|
||
|
|
* Repository synchronization, geographically distributed development.
|
||
|
|
* Optimal performance for all users, local or remote (no difference).
|
||
|
|
* Disconnected commits.
|
||
|
|
* Peer-to-peer architecture. Work may flow in without involving a master site.
|
||
|
|
* Costs are proportional to change size, not data size.
