On Wednesday Oct. 4th at 7:30pm, Andrew Lamonica of the Computer Science Department will give a talk on the Subversion Version Control System. The talk will be held in the Engineering Building Auditorium.

Version Control Systems are used by software developers and engineers to manage changes to files. These systems allow multiple participants to concurrently change files then integrate their changes without causing damage. Starting this semester, computer science senior projects will be using Subversion to manage their products.

The talk will incorporate an introduction to version control system concepts and terminology. There will also be a practical demonstration of the TortoiseSVN Subversion Client for Windows. No prior experience with version control systems or programming is necessary to attend this talk.
