Working with Binary Files

Post by sthornton » Thu Jun 03, 2010 6:43 pm

Hi,

I am very new source control and looking for a proper source control system.

I guess my question is generic in nature, but how does sourcegear products deal with Binary Files ( not text files eg web site pages)

Binary Files as in, Crystal Report Files, Word Documents, Database schemas in Sybase Data Architect etc?

Thanks,

Beth

I need more details about what you are looking for. SourceGear can version binary files. You can't really perform a Show Differences on them. Binary files are required to be checked out exclusively.

What kinds of things do you want to do with binary files?
