"svn status" from the command line will tell you what files are different vs the specified version in the repository. Guess I don't understand your question as I think svn does everything you are asking. Just "svn commit" the master working files from one server then for each server "svn update" and only those files which are different will be updated. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [email protected] ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
