Software Configuration Management (SCM)

The Carbide.c++ tools are built on top of the Eclipse and CDT open source projects (eclipse.org). Carbide can use several popular software configuration management systems including:

Other revision systems are also supported but require the downloading of an Eclipse plug-in to add that capability to Carbide. Visit the eclipse-plugins.2y.net sites to locate the plug-ins you need.

Using SCM in Carbide

The SCM you install normally adds its commands to the Team sub-menu in the Project Explorer view's context menu (Figure 1). Some SCM's install their own menu to Carbide. If this is the case, refer to the documentation included with the plug-in for details.
