Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for supporting concurrent activities in distributed development processes. In some implementations, actions include providing source code for display to a first developer, receiving first status information associated with the source code, the first status information being received in response to a determination that a second developer is concurrently accessing the source code, and reflecting a first status of the source code, processing the first status information to provide first collaboration information, and providing the first collaboration information for display to the first developer.
Claims13
A computer-implemented method for supporting concurrent activities in distributed development processes, the method being executed using one or more processors and comprising:
- providing, by the one or more processors, source code for display to a first developer;
- receiving, by the one or more processors, first status information associated with the source code, the first status information being received in response to a determination that a second developer is concurrently accessing the source code, and reflecting a first status of the source code;
- processing, by the one or more processors, the first status information to provide first collaboration information;
- and
- providing, by the one or more processors, the first collaboration information for display to the first developer.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations for supporting concurrent activities in distributed development processes, the operations comprising:
- providing source code for display to a first developer;
- receiving first status information associated with the source code, the first status information being received in response to a determination that a second developer is concurrently accessing the source code, and reflecting a first status of the source code;
- processing the first status information to provide first collaboration information;
- and
- providing the first collaboration information for display to the first developer.
A system, comprising:
- a computing device;
- and
- a computer-readable storage device coupled to the computing device and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the computing device, cause the computing device to perform operations for supporting concurrent activities in distributed development processes, the operations comprising:
- providing source code for display to a first developer;
- receiving first status information associated with the source code, the first status information being received in response to a determination that a second developer is concurrently accessing the source code, and reflecting a first status of the source code;
- processing the first status information to provide first collaboration information;
- and
- providing the first collaboration information for display to the first developer.
