<p>"This is my stupid application that I just want to learn something" is not |
|
even a good excuse to not use a version control system.</p> |
|
<span id="continue-reading"></span> |
|
<p>A very long time ago, using a source control system (or Version Control |
|
System) required installing a server, configuring it properly, installing the |
|
client and <em>then</em> you could keep track of the changes you were doing on your |
|
code.</p> |
|
<p>Today there are lots of options that can work in a standalone fashion: Just |
|
install the client and you're done (well, mostly done, you still need to |
|
initialize the environment, but that is mostly straightforward these days).</p> |
|
<p>And, again, there is no good reason to not start a project, as simple as it |
|
will be, without a version control.</p> |
|
<p>The VCS will allow you to explore new changes without breaking the main code. |
|
It will allow you to save a half-way change to make a complete different |
|
change.</p> |
|
<p>And, in the long, since you'll end up with working in team and will be |
|
required to use a VCS, you'll be used to using one.</p> |
