In the course of their 20+-year engineering careers, authors Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman have picked up a treasure trove of wisdom and anecdotes about how successful teams work together. Their conclusion? Even among people who have spent decades learning the technical side of their jobs, most haven’t really focused on the human component. Learning to collaborate is just as important to success. If you invest in the "soft skills" of your job, you can have a much greater impact for the same amount of effort. The authors share their insights on how to lead a team effectively, navigate an organization, and build a healthy relationship with the users of your software. This is valuable information from two respected software engineers whose popular series of talks—including "Working with Poisonous People"—has attracted hundreds of thousands of followers.

Team Geek

C. Michael Pilato

Open source, as you know, makes code freely available-but, without organization, code development can easily become chaotic. Version control systems allow each team member to work separately and then merge source code changes into a single repository that keeps a record of each separate version. No nasty clashes, no lost work. Written by members of the Subversion open source development team, Version Control with Subversion introduces the powerful new versioning tool designed to be the successor to the Concurrent Versions System (CVS), CVS users will find the look and feel of Subversion comfortably familiar, but Subversion is far more flexible, robust, and usable. Version Control with Subversion is useful to readers of different backgrounds, from those with no previous experience in version control to experienced systems administrators. It describes the installation and configuration of Subversion for managing a programming project, documentation, or any other team-based endeavor. If you've never used version control, you'll find everything you need to get started in this book. And if you're a seasoned CVS pro, this book will help you make a painless leap into Subversion.

Version Control with Subversion

In a perfect world, software engineers who produce the best code are the most successful. But in our perfectly messy world, success also depends on how you work with people to get your job done. In this highly entertaining book, Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman cover basic patterns and anti-patterns for working with other people, teams, and users while trying to develop software. This is valuable information from two respected software engineers whose popular series of talks—including "Working with Poisonous People"—has attracted hundreds of thousands of followers. Writing software is a team sport, and human factors have as much influence on the outcome as technical factors. Even if you’ve spent decades learning the technical side of programming, this book teaches you about the often-overlooked human component. By learning to collaborate and investing in the "soft skills" of software engineering, you can have a much greater impact for the same amount of effort. Team Geek was named as a Finalist in the 2013 Jolt Awards from Dr. Dobb's Journal. The publication's panel of judges chose five notable books, published during a 12-month period ending June 30, that every serious programmer should read.

Ganz klar: Das Schöne am Open Source-Code ist natürlich der freie Zugriff auf ihn, doch gerade deshalb will die Code-Entwicklung besonders gut organisiert sein. Versionskontrollsysteme ermöglichen es jedem Projektmitglied, zunächst unabhängig zu arbeiten und seine Änderungen am Quellcode dann in ein Repository einzufügen, mit dem die unterschiedlichen Versionen überwacht und verwaltet werden. Intelligente Verwaltung mit Subversion Wer bei Software-Projekten bisher das bewährte CVS benutzt hat, dem steht mit Subversion eine stabilere und flexiblere Alternative zur Verfügung. Versionskontrolle mit Subversion, geschrieben von Mitgliedern des Subversion-Entwicklerteams, stellt dieses mächtige Open Source-Tool vor und beschreibt, wie Sie es fachgerecht installieren und konfigurieren. Die Autoren zeigen Ihnen, wie Sie durch die intelligente Verwaltung und Dokumentation mit Subversion Konflikte und Datenverlust vermeiden können. Für Programmierer und für Systemadministratoren Das Buch eignet sich für Leser mit ganz unterschiedlichem Hintergrundwissen: Sowohl Programmierer ohne Kenntnisse der Versionskontrolle als auch erfahrene Systemadministratoren kommen hier auf ihre Kosten. Und CVS-Kennern wird mit diesem Buch ein problemloser Wechsel zu Subversion ermöglicht.
