Hi Jamis. Thanks for the reply. Will def play around there. If you ever run across the module, please link it and make an announcement. There are lots of tortoiseSVN users out there with the buggy 'out-of-date' commit problem with SVN that could be eliminated, and rails being a framework where lots of programmers are solo, where bypassing SVN, but being able to rollback based on the tarball located on the client's side would be faster and easer. Perhaps in Cap 5.1?
Thank you for your contributions.
