More Quartus source-control questions

I found a way to keep it very clean. I am using RCS, and I made a batch file to check out all the necessary files, and none of the extraneous files.

Basically, I make a new directory, and into it I check out:

-All .vhd files I created

-All .vhd files created by the MegaWizard

-.ptf file

-.qpf file

-.qsf file

-.cof file (you might not have one of these, I find it helpful in making .pof's)

If you have custom components in your SOPC system it gets a little tricky. This thread was useful to me: http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php...wtopic=5067&hl= (http://forum.niosforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5067&hl=)

Also, by default, files checked out are read only, so I have to change the permissions on some files.

This system is also nice because I keep the version control repository on a network drive, which is backed up, and I check things out to my local drive, which is faster.

Naturally, I have to update my batch file whenever I create new files, or stop using old files, but that's not too bad.
