  1. Codebase

    In software development, a codebase (or code base) is a collection of source code used to build a particular software system, application, or software component. Typically, a codebase includes only human-written source code files; thus, a codebase usually does not include source code files generated by tools (generated files) or binary library files (object files), as they can be built from the human-written source code. However, it generally does include configuration and property files, as they are the data necessary for the build. A codebase is typically stored in a source control repository in a version control system. A source code repository is a place where large amounts of source code are kept, either publicly or privately. Source code repositories are used most basically for backups and versioning, and on multi-developer projects to handle various source code versions and to provide aid in resolving conflicts that arise from developers submitting overlapping modifications. Subversion, Git and Mercurial are examples of popular tools used to handle this workflow, which are common in open source projects. For smaller projects, its code may be kept as a non-managed set of files (even the Linux kernel was maintained as a set of files for many years).

  1. Codebase

    The term codebase, or code base, is used in software development to mean the whole collection of source code used to build a particular application or component. Typically, the codebase includes only human-written source code files, not source code files generated by other tools or binary library files. However, it generally does include configuration and property files. The codebase for a project is typically stored in a source control repository. A source code repository is a place where large amounts of source code are kept, either publicly or privately. They are often used by multi-developer projects to handle various versions and handle conflicts arising from developers submitting conflicting modifications in an organized fashion. Subversion, Git and Mercurial are popular tools used to handle this workflow, and are common in open source projects. Referring to multiple codebases as “distinct” declares that there are independent implementations without shared source code and that historically, these implementations did not evolve from a common project. In the case of standards, this may be a way of demonstrating interoperability by showing two independent pieces of software that implement a given standard.
