Overview

The CM Bridge (formally known as CC2SVN and CC2Git) Version Control Connectors provide the means to connect and replicate data bi-directionally between any of the following version control/configuration management tools;

• ClearCase Subversion
• ClearCase Git
• ClearCase Mercurial
• Subversion Subversion

Description

The Clearvision CM Bridge enables complete bi-directional integration between different SCM solutions, developers can quickly and easily transport code between two version control tools. Each Software Configuration Management (SCM) solution has different strengths and weaknesses. Hybrid multi-tool SCM environments generally exist where:

• The budget, size and requirements of a project determine the SCM solution they use
• When separate companies are integrated as the result of a merger/takeover
• When working in partnership with outsourced suppliers or customers

The CM Bridge solves the challenge regarding developers who need access to code located in a different version control tool whilst maintaining all the context of the versioned history. The Clearvision CM Bridge is the perfect solution for migration from one SCM solution to another in a controlled, staged manner (rather than a 'big bang' high risk approach).

Benefits

• Bi-directional bridging of Software version control solutions
• Allows companies or departments with hybrid tool sets to share source code
• Geographically independent, bridge version control tools regardless of location
• Replicate whole or partial repositories
• Control the frequency of replication
• Ideal for gradual migration from one SCM product to another or long term synchronisation
• Can be used as a multi-site synchronisation tool
