AccuRev 4.6 Puts Dependencies Into SCM


Tool set has ability to manage changes to issue sets

By Jeff Feinman
October 15, 2007 — 
Software configuration management provider AccuRev has updated its namesake tool set with new visualization and workflow features. AccuRev 4.6, released at SD Best Practices in Boston in mid-September, allows the tracking of issue dependencies between code changes, managed as AccuRev change packages. Developers working remotely can view these dependencies.

Also in AccuRev 4.6 is the VersionSlider, which enables a developer to see how source code files have changed, in a graphical display. AccuRev officials claim that the VersionSlider removes the need to annotate operations on previous versions of files, and makes code reviews quicker. “If I’m an India-based developer and I need to have my code reviewed out of London, a developer in London can drag the slider and see what has changed for me,” said Cliff Utstein, vice president of sales and marketing for AccuRev. “I can work collaboratively with that developer in London to move very quickly, and get this done in a range of two to six weeks.”

AccuRev 4.6 also offers what it calls more flexible symbolic links, to help engineers manage complex code and project dependencies.
