Version Control for Salesforce Code

Hi,

Till now we have been coding using Eclipse without any Version Control and we are asked to use a Version Control to avoid Code Conflicts.
Which is good Version Control tool for Force.com code like Apex and Visualforce and how to set up it?


Many Thanks.

Hello,

You can use free app "Code Backup/Compare Tool" for this purpose:

If you are familiar with ANT (Force.com Migration Tool) it should be fairly trivial:

1. Cron job, nightly, retrieves metadata from ANT
2. svn --force add <path to ant checkout>
3. svn commit -m '' <path to ant checkout>
