Revision control for source code?
Is there anyway I can get subversion or even any kind of revision control for the Esenthel scripts?
Working on large projects without any kind of revision control would be a pain.

Is there any update on this?
It's quite hard to believe that everyone is working without any kind of source control.

Hi Smash,

I have seen lots of posts on this in the past. From what I read, there is no reason that you cannot use SVN on your project folder for your version control.

I recommend bitbucket (Mercurial).

I was hoping for a way to back-up code only as I'm a little worried about how big a project might grow with all the art assets, but it's not a big deal.
Thanks to all those who replied.

Any SVN program worth the time taken to download will have options as far as which folders to include or exclude, usually even types of files.

Doesn't Esenthel encrypt the art & code assets? All I see in the project folders are files with no extension and cryptic names.

This is also what I use.

I also use 1.0, for a couple of reasons, but a big one is I like to have meaningful file names in my repository and I prefer the code editor to VS. If big E could come up with a way to avoid using hashes as filenames it would be great, but it seems to be a big part of how 2.0 works.

The engine doesn't have version control itself. I think I have seen Esenthel comment on this before.. might be a good feature request.

For backups I actually just copy paste the whole Esenthel 2.0 folder... A bit lazy but it's all I need.

BTW is this the same "SmashTheWindow" that made crazy marble and that moon game?

@Fex: You use the code editor in 2.0 as well
