The battle has been won.

I had my annual review yesterday, during which the topic of source control

came up. Actually it was the IT Director who brought it up, saying that

last week he had to restore files from a backup because the other programmer

over-wrote code by mistake. Wish he had told me, I've been making weekly

7-zip files of the development and production environments, but I digress..

He gave me the green light to look into it and get back to him with costs.

Should have seen his face when I said "How about free?" lol

I'm going to start with a look at Subversion for Windows. I've used

Subversion/TortiseSVN in the past so that seems a good place to start. We

don't need all the bells and whistles that come with a full-blown SVN , so

from what I've read this may fit the bill nicely. Will toss it on a VM on

my notebook and give it a look.

I SO wanted to say "I told you so.", but thought better of it (especially

since it was during my review). I'll just be happy we are moving in the

right direction on this. J
