[q=misterhaan]sometime last year we started using subversion (svn) at work to manage our code. a while after i got used to that, i noticed [link=http://www.dreamhost.com/r.cgi?187548]dreamhost[/link] provides svn and set it up for my [link=/analogu/net/]c# .net projects[/link]. that was going decently well, and then i read about using svn for website development. i somewhat recently started building a website for my neighborhood association, so i set it up in svn such that the live website actually updates itself from the repository whenever it’s updated. using [link=http://tortoisesvn.net/]tortoise svn[/link] on my machine, i can just right-click the directory containing my local copy of the site, choose svn commit, and my change get checked in to the svn repository and then reflected on the site! no need to ftp each file separately and possibly miss one or two! i did the neighborhood site first since it had something like 5 files at the time. yesterday i did the same for track7. subversion at dreamhost runs as a generic apache user and not my account, which is a little bit of a problem since my account owns track7. what i ended up doing to get around it was to have subversion request a cgi script, which then updates track7 from svn as my account. the cgi script is set up so that it can only be accessed from the subversion server. it’s kind of a lot of setup but it works! i’m considering adding a link to the php source view script that will bring you to the script in subversion — that way you can copy and paste without getting the line numbers.[/q]
