What is Superversion for OpenVMS ?

Superversion is a version control system written in Java by Stefan Reich (http://www.superversion.org/). It is an alternative to free solutions (CVS, Subversion...) running on Unix or commercial solutions (CMS...) running on OpenVMS.

The stable version (Superversion 1.2) is a standalone and single-user application. The following version (Superversion 2.0) will be a client-server and multi-user application.

I have ported Superversion 1.2 on OpenVMS. Porting means testing all the functions, adapting the source code to correct some failures, writing a startup procedure and creating a PCSI kit. Superversion 2.0 will be ported as soon as there will be a stable version.

System requirements

Superversion for OpenVMS needs Java 1.4.1-2 or later. It may be installed on ODS2 or ODS5 volume. The project directories MUST have a "default version limit" equal to 1 and the source files in these directories MUST be in the Stream-LF format.

Superversion has been tested on Alpha but not on Itanium.
