These days there is also the Ubuntu-sponsored Bazaar, which I think is mostly Arch-compatible, but with command line syntax closer to what BK and CVS users may expect. The only problem with Arch and Xen is that Arch really works best if your build-targets live in their own directory, rather being littered all over the source tree. It can be convinced to ignore all the unversioned stuff, but I think what usually happens is that Arch manages to convince its users to modify the build scripts (saves a lot of 'make clean && make's too if you do it right and makes the source tree easier to navigate) rather than the other way around. The good news is that with all these great new tools coming out, tracking an upstream code base has become a lot simpler than it used to be, making it easier for users to run with whatever system they prefer. Personally, I'll stick with TLA/Arch. Jacob _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
