June Book of the Month

The Sys Admin of the Week for June 5, Neal Dias, lists CVS/Subversion as the "tool you can't live without". By coincidence, O'Reilly and Associates have released a new book on version control this week. The introduction to the book proclaims that version control can help developers become more efficient. But as Sys Admin in large facilities, like Neal, know version control can be essential to keep your environment from blowing up underneath you.


The June Book of the Month is *Pragmatic Version Control Using Subversion, Second Edition by Mike Mason.

Purchase the book at Amazon and support LOPSA at the same time! Or, use our new membership discount to save by purchasing the book directly through O'Reilly & Associates Store.


Discussions can be attached as comments to this article, or discussed on the LOPSA profession mailing list. Suggestions for topics or specific books for a future Book of the Month should be mailed to board@lopsa.org
