Are there any specific Version Control systems which are designed to work with the RPM format out of the box like svn, cvs, git, sccs?
I would potentially like something that will automagically populate the ?Version? and ?Changelog? fields in my spec files for some home grown packages I maintain.
Some Boost developers have started and maintain ryppl (as reported in http://lists.boost.org/boost-cmake/2010/08/0924.php), which may correspond (partly) to what you are looking for: http://ryppl.org/ http://ryppl.github.com/ http://github.com/boost-lib/
Then, of course, there are the tools used by Fedora. To name a few, Mock, Koji https://fedorahosted.org/koji/, Bodhihttps://fedorahosted.org/bodhi/, Mash http://people.redhat.com/notting/mash/, TurboGearshttp://turbogears.org/, Git, Trac, FedPkg. And, for the virtual machines, Xen is apparently used.
