Code Co-op

Code Co-op - the affordable peer-to-peer version control system for distributed development
Code Co-op - keep your Windows development projects organized across multiple development languages with Code Co-op, the peer-to-peer version control system.

Code Co-op gives robust control over your project files while giving you the flexibility to collaborate with your on- and off-site developers, project leads, or clients - no server required.

With Code Co-op, you have complete access to your project at all times. To synchronize with others, simply log on to your Email, LAN, or VPN. This flexibility enables you to collaborate from any location without disrupting what's important-your development.

Code Co-op is one of the first, truly affordable version control systems for collaborative development. Discover for yourself that robust version control can be big in functionality and small in price.

Main features of Code Coop:

Peer-to-peer Wiki Support: The Wiki functionality allows team members to create local Wiki sites in their projects. These sites may contain notes, to-do lists, design plans, or any other documentation, ranging in form from pure text to richly formatted documents. Creating, editing, hyperlinking, and embedding pictures in Wiki pages is easy and intuitive. The pages are automatically versioned and shared between team members using Code Co-op, without the need for a web server. These sites are navigable using a built-in, full-featured Internet Browser Control.

Extensible Wiki-based database and built-in bug database application: Version 5.0 includes a flexible bug tracking system built on top of Code Co-op. Each bug report is a Wiki file which contains a combination of database fields and free-form Wiki-formatted text, with links, screenshots, preformatted code and more. Using a simplified version of SQL that is built into Code Co-op Wiki, bug reports can be displayed and organized based on their properties. This mechanism is general enough to let the you create and manage arbitrary text-based databases.

Branch merge support: Previous versions of Code Co-op had limited support for branches. This release introduces intuitive branch merging using pluggable external tools.

SMTP/POP3 support: The addition of SMTP/POP3 support introduces the ability to collaborate using almost any email system that supports these protocols. It also means that the distribution of change scripts is completely hidden in the background. Many popular free email hosts like Gmail and Yahoo (through YPOPs) support SMTP/POP3

GUI improvements: We added a split-pane history display, which makes it very easy to view, save, compare, and merge historical versions of files. Selecting a project version in the history pane brings up the list of changed files in the file pane. Specific changes can then be viewed by double-clicking on each file. The same convenient UI is used for reviewing incoming scripts before synchronization.

Additional Features

Execute check-out, deep check-out, delete and more against folders in tree pane of Files tab.

New global command-line applet allowing you to execute a command against all projects.
