CVS's development model is the backbone of the open source movement; Subversion has taken that model and redesigned the technology behind it to provide us with an immensely more powerful tool for writing software. In this session, we'll cover the history of CVS and Subversion, Subversion's similarities (and differences) with CVS, migrating from CVS to Subversion, and, lastly, the future direction of Subversion.
Brian W. Fitzpatrick is a software engineer at Google, working on their open source efforts. Prior to that, Brian worked for CollabNet on Subversion and related version control tools. He also worked at Apple as a senior engineer in the education and professional services divisions. He is a member of the Apache Software Foundation, a Subversion developer since 2000, and a co-author of the O'Reilly book "Version Control with Subversion."
