Should I use the mapping to the web root (X:) as my project workspace? Yes, you should, but don't map it to the webroot, create a subdirectory with your name in it, and use that as your workspace. You alone work in your own subdir. Each developer has its own subdir mapped on that dev server. Absolute paths to cfc's, directories, url's can be stored in a config.xml that you place one directory higher (to prevent the battle of different config.xml's from different developers being checked in on the repository), and loaded by your application.cfc/m
Like this, saving files in eclipse navigator immediately reflects in changes in your subdir on the dev server. when you are done with a particular task, check in the code in the repository. Also, make it a habit to update your working copy regularly. Its the first thing i do each morning. svn won't erase the changes in files you have made as long as they are more recent than the ones in the repository. If another developer has worked on the same files (and checked them in), you won't be able to check them in. You will have to update your working copy first, the svn will try to merge them, and in cases this fails, you can open the two versions to see the differences and fix manually. Enjoy.
