I'm pretty suprised no one's mentioned Ant and the many, many tools around it for the deployment side of things. Regardless of the SCC system, Ant is a nobrainer for automating deployment, I was about to :)...here's my experience with ant: 1. Needed to set up a system to automate a complex

John, are you aware of a way to label a tree in Subversion? In VSS you can apply a label to a whole project, and then if you need to you can deploy a specific label, or roll back to a specific label. I can't find a similar function in Subversion...I can see the history of individual files but

Chip, Insightful post, thanks. One thing that caught my eye is exporting to a staging server calling 'svn checkout', shouldn't you 'svn export' that instead? Checking out files also exports a flurry of .svn folders for local version tracking, but exporting gives you a clean directory

If you are running CF Enterprise, you can use the Archive and Deploy system built into the CF Admin. I started using it when we went through Sarbanes-Oxley remediation. I get a ticket for a change, I make the changes, they go through production control processing, then I create an archive on my

For the first point, you can use your version control system to keep both deployments in sync. Just have your production boxes check out a working copy of your production branch, and then when you make changes, run an 'update' on both of them. Or you could take a different tack (what we do for
