No, if you do an "svn co http://svn.server.com/svn/configs/trunk asterisk"
in /etc, it'll make a folder called asterisk in your /etc directory. Once
that's done, any modifications made that are committed to the server can
be downloaded into /etc/asterisk by running "svn up" inside the directory.
Might need to get your brakes checked if you keep hitting walls :)

I've hit a wall already, where the subversion docs say that your files _must_
go into a directory called trunk(huh? What's with that?). That's going to break
Asterisk, who obviously wants conf files in /etc/asterisk.
Grrrrr.

The first situation you mention can be solved by creating separate files that
contain the unique elements, and then including them in the main files where
all the commonality is. That is how we do things, and it works well for us.
It may be a little cumbersome if you have a *lot* of uniqueness, but if you
really want to share a significant portion of the configs this is the only way
I know of to do it.
As for revision control, we use Subversion with a branch for each server
containing the unique files. All of our configuration scripts also include
automatic checkins of changed files (we can always revert if need be). It also
makes it easy to spot changes if something goes wrong, as an svn diff will tell
you.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Config Revision Control
Has anyone got any neat solutions for Asterisk .conf file revision control?
We have multiple Asterisk boxes here, that we'd like to maintain a _mostly_
common set of conf files on. They aren't all the same though. There's subtle
differences. For example, in sip.conf, iax.conf etc, the bindaddr setting is
different. Dundi.conf is very different between each system.
At the moment I have a file tree on a separate server, and I use the m4
processor to replace certain unique sections of the files. I have a bunch of
scripts to build sip.conf etc and then rsync the files out to the servers. It
works, mostly, but it isn't elegant.
I'd like to revision control all this. I don't know how it could be done with
revision control though. As I said, not all the files are the same. I don't
know if we'd run a version control client on each Asterisk box, or if we'd run
it centrally, and then use rsync again, to copy the files out.
Doug.
