How about using Subversion? There's already a fink package for it. It's designed to be the successor to CVS: http://subversion.tigris.org/ I would think that a Subversion server would be less resource intensive on the server than an rsync server, especially if people use rsync -c. I'm a svn committer, so I'm just a little biased here :) Best, Blair -- Blair Zajac <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Plots of your system's performance - http://www.orcaware.com/orca/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
