Abstract

In one embodiment, a code server and edit server are provided. The code server stores the source code. Users do not access the code server directly. Rather, an edit server is used where users can log in to the edit server and send requests to edit portions of the source code. The edit server then sends requests to the code server for requested portions of the source code. Different users may have different access-rights to portions of the code. When the request is received from the edit server, if the code server determines the user requesting the portion of the source code does not have access rights to it, then the code server does not allow the portion of code to be accessed. However, if the user does have access rights, then the portion of the source code is retrieved and sent to the edit server. The user can then edit the source code on the edit server.
