we're working on a large-scale umbraco project that has a number of developers on it at any one time. Just wondering if someone could suggest a good way of managing the db.. the files etc are fine we're using tortise.. but merging the DB changes on propertys, doc types etc is proving to be a challenge.. we usually use DB Ghost on our other projects because it is more a compare and upgrade one DB to another wheras in this instance we need something that will merge changes..
any suggestions? I was hoping others had found a good way to manage the DB!
Usually I use a single DB on a server for my team (when working in a team) to avoid merging issues in the database. Then you can still develop locally and all developers can connect to that database.
Multiple Devs On 1 Project Merge DB's!?
