Version Control System is essential for any form of distributed/collaborative development to enable software versioning and revision control. The Event Processes developed in Fiorano Environment can be shared with the Version Control System using eStudio application. Version Control System acts as a repository where every change made to the source can be tracked along with details such as the person who made the change, date when it was changed and why it was done.

Fiorano supports SVN, CVS and VSS Version Control Systems.

The sections below illustrate how to configure and use SVN version control in eStudio.
