What is a VCS repository?
提问by Shookie
This might sound like a stupid question. It's especially stupid since I've used SVN before and I've recently used git.
这听起来可能是个愚蠢的问题。这特别愚蠢，因为我之前使用过 SVN 并且最近使用了 git。
But I just noticed that I don't exactly know what a repository is.
但我只是注意到我并不完全知道存储库是什么。
The way I see it is that a repository is a kind of container to hold the project code. I'm quite certain that's the wrong way to define it.
我认为存储库是一种保存项目代码的容器。我很确定这是定义它的错误方式。
So how would you define a repository? Wikipedia says: storage location from which software packages may be retrieved and installed on a computer.
那么如何定义存储库呢？维基百科说：storage location from which software packages may be retrieved and installed on a computer。
Does that mean you can have more than one project on a repository? If so, when would you create a new one?
这是否意味着您可以在一个存储库上拥有多个项目？如果是这样，你什么时候创建一个新的？

The Wikipedia definition is correct. Think about a repository from which you would install Linux packages. As far as VCS, it stands for Version Control System and therefore a VCS repository is one for a Version Control System like Git.
维基百科的定义是正确的。想一想您将从中安装 Linux 软件包的存储库。就 VCS 而言，它代表版本控制系统，因此 VCS 存储库是 Git 等版本控制系统的存储库。

The wikipedia definition for repository is right. The pro-git book has a very nice description about VCS. And yes, you can have more than one project in a repository.
