I need to choose which source code manager/repository for a small project.
Any ideas on which Eclipse plug-in is the mose stable? I like the concepts
behind Stellation, but I can't find much recent news on the project...

Thanks,

Shane

Stellation is still in "pre-alpha"stage so is not probably a good candidate
for a production environment just yet.

Hello,
we use the ClearCase plug-in for 5 month now and can recommend it. The
current version is very stable.

Do you mean the Rational one or Matt Conway's eclipse-ccase plugin.
Personally I would recommend Matt's plugin over Rational's. It properly
supports moving directories while refactoring and works on Unix.

On the other hand Clearcase dynamic views can be problematic. See:

The CVS integration works pretty well for me, even on some large projects.
There are a few missing features but probably nothing you can't live
without. We did have a problem with the "ext" connection method but
switching to "pserver" solved it.

Depending on your definition of a "small project" though you might not need
this. Eclipse has a handy local history feature that would work ok for one
developer's short term memory of changes. Right click on a resource and
select Compare with > Local history to see it. The length of time changes
are retained is configurable in the Preferences window. Add some backups and
you're in business.

Another option is SourceForge, if you can make it an open source project.
They provide free hosted CVS servers and disk space for you.

Sorry, we use the Rational one on a very large project. We do not use
dynamic views.
