Team Foundation Server-ish solution for scripters ?

Hey guys,

any of you know if there's a product out there like Team Foundation Server,
for co-writing scripts, version control, change control, shared snippets
storage, etc. ?

I'm not interested in doing it clientside. A solution that allow e.g. a
whole IT department to share and co-work on scripts.

You might want to look into Subversion: http://subversion.tigris.org/features.html

Hi Jacob,

There is currently an active project in the community called
"PoshCode" that you will want to keep an eye on. Currently, anyone
can submit and retrieve scripts to the site, but we are working on
extending that functionality to include features such as revision
control, searching, authentication, and of course cmdlets to interface
with the site.

Hope this helps. :-)

- Robbie

Re: Team Foundation Server-ish solution for scripters ?

I'm just going to "second" both of these suggestions.

SVN works great ( see this post, particularly Arild's tab-expansion
script: http://www.hanselman.com/blog/PowerS...ubversion.aspx
) ....

But PoshCode is working toward being specifically a snippet, script,
and module -oriented system.

SVN (and any source control) basically supports a folder hierarchy,
and provides features like checking the whole hierarchy to see if
there are new versions on the server, or if you need to upload
anything ... you could also use Live Mesh to do that in a "trusted"
subfolder...

Incidentally, you can grab the source for the current PoshCode from
PoshCode.org (although I think the link on the front page might be one
version out of date) and run a copy of it inside your firewall if you
want, and our script functions (or cmdlets, if you're on v2) will work
against it.

I'd love to hear any thoughts you have about what features you would
want such a system to have. You can read about our current plans and
leave any comments on the PoshCode project site on http://CodePlex.com/PoshCode
