Nah, I am not working with Synergy. I referred to an earlier encounter with it. Right now, I am stuck with ClearCase. Most of the projects have been using base ClearCase, not UCM, and it means that there is no realistic way to transfer the histories anywhere. It can be tried, sure, but who would really want to do it? What I am looking for is tools that I can recommend to the projects, tools that are available to them, and will not pose a threat in being non-convertible, tools that would allow the projects to later make another decision, and not get stuck with the tool they choose now. > So let me ask you a question; What have you done so far to find out the answer > to the questions you're looking for, apart from asking here how a theoretical > scenario would pan out? Fair enough. I am looking for documentation, and advice on how to find worthy sources, before delving into trying out something for no good reason. But, at the same time, I wish to have a look-see on what the general status is right now. If there is no summary of it available, then apparently I have to make it myself. But I would hate to find out afterward that someone had in fact done it already. Tomas Carnecky's list is a good start. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
