Apologies for the OT post, but I really need some input here...
We're trying to set up a new dev/staging/production environment with source
control. One of our major problems / decisions is based aorund the
development cycle and how it works with source control. Obviously the maxim
"work locally, store globally" is the perfect ideal. When you're talking
about something like C development this is simple - you just need a local
compiler. But we're running CF and Spectra, and several of the developer's
boxes are not capable of running local copies of spectra.
I don't want a situation where I have to check out a file locally, edit it
blind, check it back in again, somehow move it to a browseable directory
then refresh the page and see my changes. When I'm trying to debug
something that's going to be a nightmare. Especially if we use CVS instead
of MS Source Safe (and we'd prefer to implement CVS), because then we have
an extra client to deal with, thus more alt tabbing all over the place.
So I'm trying to work out the best solutions - how to handle the serving of
these pages, where to check out to,(working directories) etc. Can anyone
lend some insight as to how their company does things, or how best they
might implement something? We can't do away with spectra as we have several
large jobs requiring it, and we're pretty much stuck with not being able to
run a local copy of spectra on everyone's box.
any help at all would be appreciated...
cheers
Toby
