pik is a multi version control tool, which can be used in windows. When the time I wrote this article, pik on github says No longer maintained
but I prefer to use pik on windows.
Pitfall
Tested on Windows 7 32bit.Execute msi installer and install it to windows, but you can’t use pik. Some modification are required.
First, get new installer pik-0.3.0.pre.msi, which is the newest on writing this article, from the page of installer, and execute it.
It is installed into C:\pik
as default. Then, open C:\pik\pik.bat
and change %HOME%
to %USERPROFILE%
on 7th line.
In Windows, environmental variable %HOME%
is not defined. %USERPROFILE%
works well. It’s the same on Windows 8.1.
