RabbitVCS supports the following systems, clients and versions. Support for new systems, clients and versions is taken as read… please send patches for review!
| VCS | Subversion | Git | Mercurial | Others |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shortname | svn | git | hg | Patches welcome! [1] |
| Version | 1.8.x | 2.1.x | 2.8.x (stalled) [2] | - |
| Binding [3] | python-svn | Dulwich | N/A [4] | - |
| Version | 1.7.2+ | 0.9.7+ | - | - |
[1] Clients already exist for some other systems, see the alternatives list below.
[2] Patches for improving Mercurial support are welcome! Including making this feature optional.
[3] This is the Python library used to bind to the client. Note that the library name is used, not the OS package name. On Debian-derived systems, these package names usually start “python-” and may therefore appear to be different or reversed (frex, `python-dulwich` is the package name for the Dulwich library, `python-nemo` is the package name for the `nemo-python` library).
[4] Mercurial is written in Python. No binding library required.
| Desktop | Cinnamon | Gnome | Mac OS X | MATE | Unity | Xfce | Others |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| File manager | Nemo [5] | Nautilus | Finder | Caja | Nautilus | Thunar | Patches welcome! |
| Version | 2.2.x | 3.x | - | Stalled [6] | 3.x | 1.6.x | - |
| Binding | nemo-python | nautilus-python | - | caja-python | nautilus-python | thunarx-python | - |
| Version | 2.0+ | 1.0+ | - | - | 1.0+ | 0.2.0+ | - |
[5] Nemo is a fork of Nautilus 3.4. RabbitVCS integration is available from Linux Mint.
[6] Caja is a fork of Nautilus 2.x. Theoretically supportable based on prior support for Nautilus 2.x. Client code already in repo. See issue 51 for current issues.
| Name | Gedit | Gedit | Others |
|---|---|---|---|
| Type | Text editor | Text editor | Patches welcome! |
| Version | 3.0 - 3.7 | 3.8+ (stalled) [7] | - |
| Binding | - | - | - |
| Version | - | - | - |
[7] Support for Gedit 3.x is currently stalled because Gedit 3.8+ support requires porting RabbitVCS to Python 3. This would require significant effort. Patches welcome!
| Client | Nautilus | Gedit |
|---|---|---|
| Version | 2.x | 2.x |
| Supported until | ~0.15 | ~0.15 |

These client alternatives are no longer available / no longer maintained.
| bzr + Nautilus | bzr-gtk |
