In a recent post I talked about branching and merging, and offered some tips on how to avoid development nightmares involved with these procedures.

An integral part of the solution I cited is stream branching, which easily accepts parent code while allowing developers to then push code out to other streams. This makes merging easier because the entire file change history is available and automatically tracked.

Streams have been an important step in advancing software configuration management (SCM) technologies and processes. Now, with software development growing more complex seemingly by the day, the time has come for the next phase of more robust SCM solutions.

Between globally distributed teams, emerging methodologies such as Agile, and market demands for faster, better and more cost-effective software, there is great demand for enterprise developers to better manage all of their activities. In addition, industries such as financial services and healthcare face the added complexity of compliance with regulations such as SOX and HIPAA.

I’m excited about some big news we’ll be announcing next week around these challenges. What AccuRev is announcing will be a major step forward both for our clients and the software development industry – it really is the next leap forward for SCM solutions.

I can’t reveal too many details at this point, but stay tuned for more details coming soon – on this blog and the news wires!
