branch

http://www.cmcrossroads.com[..]/cgi-bin/cmwiki/view/CM/BranchYesMergeNo

A lot of resource here - http://www.cmcrossroads.com[..]i-bin/cmwiki/view/CM/BranchingAndMerging

At my company, we tag each CVS module and we use those tags to build releases. That way, we know exactly which code versions each deployment has. Also, developers can check in code at any point while controlling when they release it.

Branches are a major headache, which I avoid whenever possible. You have to worry about maintaining and testing each branch, along with merging changes. I prefer to release the latest and greatest code to each customer. If different customers require different behavior, if statements and configuration files are a lot better than CVS branches.

Branches do make sense if you want to release a minor change to an old release, but upgrading the entire code base is risky. However, high-quality code and testing should reduce that risk.

What is SCM

Software CM creates the medium through which software development changes & activities must flow. Therefore, Software CM is the intentional architecture of software development change-flow. According to this article

What should be in SCM?

In my opinions, everything except machine generated should be in SCM... How about you?
