New Helix Versioning Engine with DVCS Capabilities Now Available
April 2015 by Emmanuelle Lamandé
Perforce Software announces the general availability of the Distributed Version Control System (DVCS) capability in Perforce Helix, the new software configuration management and content collaboration platform that was unveiled last month.
Helix Versioning Engine offers a hybrid approach to version management, blending a Git-like distributed workflow with the traditional centralised mode of operation. With Helix, enterprises can offer developers the workflow they want, while maintaining visibility and control over the distributed environment. Unlike other DVCS solutions, Helix is unencumbered by limits on file and repository sizes.
With Helix Versioning Engine, you can:
– Work disconnected and boost productivity with local repositories
– Enjoy a Git-like workflow without limits on file or repository sizes
– Push and fetch to move content between independent Helix sites
– Maintain enterprise-grade security while preserving rich history and audit trails
Perforce Helix is available immediately. The product is free of charge for the first 20 users.
