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:

我已经在http://dbdeploy.com/上使用了ThoughtWorks的dbdeploy工具。它鼓励使用迁移脚本。在每个版本中，我们将更改脚本合并到一个文件中，以简化理解，并允许dba“支持”更改。

我们有一个每周的sql转储到一个颠覆回购。这是完全自动化的，但这是一项非常繁重的任务。

你会想要限制修改的数量，因为它真的会在一段时间后消耗磁盘空间!

Sadly, I've seen more than one team developing PL/SQL programs (stored procedures in Oracle) - sometimes ten thousands LOC - just by editing the code in TOAD (a database tool), without even saving the source to files (except for deployment). Even if the database is backuped regulary (wouldn't take that for granted, though), the only way to retrieve an old version of a stored procedure is to restore the whole database, which is many GB large. And of course sometimes concurrent changes in one file lead to loss of work, when more than one developer works on the same project.

必须阅读将数据库置于版本控制之下。查看K. Scott Allen的系列帖子。

When it comes to version control, the database is often a second or even third-class citizen. From what I've seen, teams that would never think of writing code without version control in a million years-- and rightly so-- can somehow be completely oblivious to the need for version control around the critical databases their applications rely on. I don't know how you can call yourself a software engineer and maintain a straight face when your database isn't under exactly the same rigorous level of source control as the rest of your code. Don't let this happen to you. Get your database under version control.

我有一切必要的重新创建我的数据库从裸露的金属，减去数据本身。我相信有很多方法可以做到这一点，但我所有的脚本等都存储在subversion中，我们可以通过将所有这些从subversion中取出并运行安装程序来重建DB结构等。
