Hi Kym

Thanks very much for such a detailed response. So just to be 100% sure
of what you're saying:
1. You should only ever one version of the code on your dev machine
i.e. if you're working on one branch (Branch A) but need to swap to
another branch (Branch B) than you should check in Branch A and
checkout Branch B i.e. Branch B overrides Branch A in your working
copy. This makes sense because you wouldn't want to have more than one
project checked out at anyone time. Would you recommend checking in
daily work to the branch, trunk or both?
2. Once you've completed a branch, check it back in, copy it to a tag
(i.e. latest version ready for production), and perhaps delete the
Branch to clean things up. Then export the tagged version for
Production via SVN or FTP or whatever you prefer. So essentially the
production server could have Subversion installed and it's "working
copy" is the code which is live. So all you are doing is checking out
a tagged version from shared server to production server when you
upgrade to new version. Makes sense!
3. All I've got to work out now is how to override my dev working copy
in Eclipse because so far I've only worked out how to checkout a
version into a new project... I'll keep playing around. I guess the
other option is to try Tortoise as per your "switching" suggestion.

Thanks a million again!

Cheers
Matthew
