I agree with many of the posting concerning ruby's ActiveRecord migrations - they are an elegant way to manage the database in small incremental files that everyone can share. With that said, I've recently implemented a project using VisualStudio's Database Project, and it's kinda made me a believer. Short story - you create a database project, import all (if any) existing database objects into it (tables/views/triggers/keys/users/etc). That import results in a "Create" script per object. To manage the database you alter the create script and then on deploy VS compares the target database to the state of the database residing in your project and apply the proper alter statements.

这真的有点神奇，我必须承认，这是VS团队做的更好的事情之一。到目前为止，我真的很感动。

当然，您可以在自己选择的版本控制系统中管理整个数据库项目。

哇，这么多答案。对于可靠的数据库版本控制，您需要对更改数据库的代码进行版本控制。一些CMS提供配置管理工具，比如Drupal 8中的配置管理工具。以下是一个实用步骤的概述，可以安排您的工作流并确保数据库配置是版本化的，即使是在团队环境中:

我通过保存创建/更新脚本和生成sampledata的脚本来完成。

I've heard people say you absolutely have to keep your schemas in the database. I'm not sure I agree. This really depends on the system you're working with. If your system is relatively small and the data is not terribly important. And the the speed at which you need to bring another development environment online is crucial.. then yes.. you can benefit from it. However when your schema is useless without the data and the database is extremely large, it becomes virtually impossible to "source control" your database. Sure, you can still keep your DDL code in source control but that's essentially useless. You can't get the data needed without backup/restore.

在大型数据库开发工作中，我发现备份和恢复是首选的回滚选项。当然，你可以在源代码控制中保留过程、视图、函数等，但要保留表。SQL不是必需的。此外，如果您的部署过程是无懈可击的，那么您很可能永远不需要“回滚”您的生产环境。

是的。代码就是代码。我的经验法则是，我需要能够从头构建和部署应用程序，而不需要查看开发或生产机器。

我已经使用RedGate SQL Compare Pro与脚本文件夹进行模式同步，然后我将所有更新提交给版本控制。效果很好。
