This is what I have done; not exactly what you're asking, but it can be used to accomplish the same thing. I have set up a json interface which can be used to get a list of repositories on our main development server. A script on another system will use this interface to clone any repository which hasn't been cloned already, and pull changes from all the already cloned repositories. Once this has been done all the cloned/pulled repositories are backed up. This has the added benefit that I don't need to store credentials for logging in to the backup server on the main development system. -- Kind Regards, Jan _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
