Hello,
Can I ask a best-practices question? I feel that what I'm doing is not
enough but I'm not sure what is the Right Thing. I know many folks on
this list do development of various kinds.
I do a lot of web work. I have all my material, including dB table
generation and stocking, in a
You bring up a good topic. Write some dist or install scripts, put
them in version control, and fix them when you find bugs in them, just
like the rest of your development. Also, maybe the export command
would be useful:

Hi Jim,
Have you used svn export? That is how I deploy from the repository to the
development environment. The export command will push out only the files in
your project and leave behind all of the svn meta directories and files. It
will also omit any files that are not under revision
Jim,
I would echo the two comments you've already gotten: use svn export
and branches/tags. Here's an example repo layout:
/trunk
/branches
/1.0.x
/1.1.x
/tags
/1.0.0
/1.0.1
/1.0.2
/1.1.0
/1.1.1
Branch from the trunk, tag from a branch. Bug fix changes only in
Thank you to everyone for the replies. Some people seemed not to
understand me, so I apologize.
I use svn and I use versions and branching. I know about export. What
I'm struggling with is that developing directly from the repository tree
is awkward, and I wondered if others know of a better
Well, what I do is use Apache's config file to set up multiple
directories and servers on my development machine. Each
server is listening on a different port and provides a different
purpose. One is for bug fixing, one is for long-term development,
one for pre-release checking, etc.

Jim,
In the first example you gave could you simply have a configuration
file (that isn't in svn and is different on each machine) that stores
a database_user variable; then, instead of running the SQL script
directly, it's run through a script that expands that variable? This
way when it's run

Unfortunately, I found the gnome character map difficult to

Not positive if this is true for KDE as well, but on GNOME I have both the

toolbar applet that lets me switch between them.
Then when you want something like é you just type apostrophe followed by e
and you get it.

OK: so, you've noticed that my last post was signed. So the PRIVATE key
is fine, and that modulates my question only slightly: what's wrong with
my PUBLIC key?
Thanks for your patience...
