SCM involves controlling access and storing changes to software code, resources and project artifacts. Your software project most likely has a chosen SCM tool (a.k.a. version control software or revision control software). However, SCM tools often use similar terms to mean very different concepts. Make sure you understand the difference between the following terms by reading the guest article that I have written here.
- Repository versus Project
- Trunk versus Branch
- Add versus Update versus Commit
- Delete versus Purge
- Checkout versus Lock
- Overwrite versus Merge
- Revision Number versus Message
- Label versus Baseline
