Tom Lord's Hackery

Popular GNU Arch Links

Tom Lord's Pages -- Hopefully, you're lookin' at 'em. ../index.html

The user community wiki -- not something I help to maintain at all but (or therefore :-) a popular alternative to the tutorial. Also a forum where people work on new ideas and designs for improvements to arch. http://wiki.gnuarch.org

"A Tutorial Introduction to The arch Revision Control System" -- http://regexps.srparish.net/www/tutorial/html/arch.html

"What is Revision Control" -- a neutral description of what revision control is (not Arch specific although, obviously, reflective of the perspective of Arch's designer). ./writings/what-is-revctl.html

"An Overview of GNU Arch" -- a brief list of (some of) the features that most distinguish Gnu Arch from competing systems. ./writings/arch-overview.html

"How Arch Works" -- a high level description of exactly what arch is and does. If you're like me, the necessary vagueness of an "overview" like the previous link can be tantalizing but frustrating. This short paper tries to give programmers and other technical types a slightly deeper picture. ./writings/how-arch-works.html
