Question

I am new to working on projects in a team. I need to Share an android project with my team placed at one local server machine with the other machines connected through LAN. We are using Eclipse for project development.

How can i place project code on one machine and then multiple people can work on it from their respected machines on same LAN. The programmers can CheckIn/ CheckOut the files and all.

Its just a start for me in this field so don't have much idea about this.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Well, there are several options. Assuming you HAVE to work on a LAN network, there is TFS for eclipse.

However, if you do have a reliable internet connection, there are much more popular options such as Git which allows you to have a 'master' branch with different team members working on local copies and then 'committing' changes.

OTHER TIPS

The Best way to go is to use a version control system (VCS).

There are mainly two types of version control systems.

  1. Centralized (Eg. SVN)
  2. Distributed (Eg. Git)

I would recommend you to go with Distributed VCS as it is more powerful and gives you more flexibility.

Try http://github.com or http://bitbucket.org

You can even setup your own git server
