Hi XCode people,
Has anyone noticed that <select any flavor you like> SCC with XCode is
a royal pain - or costs a royal fortune?
Here we are with what Wall Street columnist Walt Mossberg describes
as, "...the best-designed computers on the market..." which also
present the most elegant user-interface imaginable but, years later,
the developers continue to futz around with command-line interface
tools to protect and serve the source-code that run on all of this.
WHAAA? Having brought up this subject before and been pretty much
shouted down with "Real programmers don't need girly-mann stuff like
dat", I submit, once again, that I'd rather spend my afternoon writing
code instead of agonizing over whether some fink-script did the right
thing, having to install Apache 2.0, and figuring out what the 'clues'
to using the repository actually do.
This situation has gone on for SO long - I cannot imagine it will ever
change - else there must be something to the notion that SCC is not
considered important in the Mac community - or all Mac programmers are
pencil-neck geeks who, after successfully repairing their eyeglasses
with surgical adhesive tape, have nothing better to do than dink around
with this minutia. (none of which I believe is true...)
Just so this note doesn't fall COMPLETELY into the 'rant' category,
let me toss in a question here... "Why does Macintosh SCC remain in
such a pitiful state?"
