I’m currently working on several projects on my own (at least the developing part is done only by me :). Using Eclipse with different Java, R, SQL and other source files I’m wondering what version control system would be best for me.
At the time the history of Eclipse IDE seems to be enough, but I’m not sure if this will be true in a month/year…
What solution would you recommend and why?
To be more precise: I’m quite sure to use SVN or git if I decide to use a full version control system. But I’m just not sure if it is necessary…
small update: has the release of Eclipse Helios added new opinions?
a/ It is necessary to have a VCS
b/ CVCS and DVCS are quite different
c/ Eclipse is currently moving all its project to Git (and is improving on EGit), so Git will be the VCS target on Eclipse.
