I've been simply delighted with a virtual machine of the same flavor as the
server, running the same stuff as the server.
Everything except the code itself is in the VM image- the code is shared via
NFS with the VM from the host machine, so: no funky copy/paste/try cycle.
The excellent (really, really excellent BTW) schema_tool keeps our data-base
schema in sync. Home-cheese deserved that wii, no doubt!
The code is distributed via a team project set, or just dumping a working
copy on the host at the same time the VM is copied.
Potentially, you can have a new recruit up and coding in a couple of hours,
which is fair- compared to days, the old ways!
We've got a complicated set up tho- jasperserver, coldfusion 8, etc. on
jboss.
This way /really/ fucking rocks, is what I'm trying to convey.
Oh, and when you're not using Windows- you /can/ copy like 40 gigs in like
30 minutes. I thought Dave (iirc) was /really/ exaggerating, but it turns
out
that windows just really really sucks for stuff like copying files.
You'd think I'd've remembered that, tho, right? Formatting a floppy while
doing other things? Yeah, now I recall, sorta.
Funny how the mind works, I do declare.
