I'm new to ofbiz and was wondering if I could get some feedback on how folks typically put their code under revision control and then build and deploy their applications. I would like to enable layering in my code with the latest/greatest ofbiz code as it becomes available--instead of putting the whole lot under revision control and having to merge in changes.
A few of us ( mostly who are utilizing Opentaps add-ons AFAIK ) are utilizing "svk". What this does allows us to do is download the daily changes from the parent project and maintain our local customizations in a more organized fashion.
Leon Torres ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) I believe is the expert on it this topic for opensourcestrategies. I'd expect a few hours of contracted training with them will have you up, running, and happy.
The *only* problem that drives me slightly crazy is that the svn generated merges aren't foolproof. It's more like 99 44/100% foolproof. But it typically takes only a minute or two to figure it out once in a while, or writing your local customizations so they are more "svn visible" so it's not creating a ton of extra work.
