Abstract
A method is presented for using a distributed source control system with a centralized source control system. A first set of files is obtained from a source control repository and stored on a first electronic computing device. The first set of files comprises all or part of a code base in the centralized source control system. A request is received for at least part of the code base from a second electronic computing device in a distributed source control system. As a result of the request, at least a part of the first set of files is sent to the second electronic computing device. A change set for the first set of files is received from the second electronic computing device. The change set is processed to be in a format compatible with the source control repository. The change set is submitted to the source control repository.
