That is how we do it. We pull a specific revision and patch where we need to - and go from there - apply our custom components (where the patches live) - and go from there.

I'm a bit confused with your deployment process. Are your production servers synchronized directly to the ofbiz svn repository and then manually patched
and built?

Yeah - we do make changes to the core ofbiz, but we use patches (and
apply them during deployments) until they're in the trunk and we've
made the decision to upgrade. We used to do it all the time, but with the speed at which massive changes are being made, we've grown to be a
bit more careful.  That being said, we stay up to the trunk
religiously since that's where we put most of our changes as well.

We do have a local svn repo for our hot-deploy code - actually we tend to break them up by client and have separate repos for each to make it
easier.

Hi Tim,

Do you do any changes to the core applications as extensions in hot-
deploy?
Do you have a local svn repository for your hot-deploy code?

Many thanks for the reply,

Chris

I wouldn't.  We do just about everything in hot-deploy and then
upgrade OFBiz whenever it's necessary.  The vendor branch is one
option to keep yourself insulated from the community's changes - but
from experience - it's really a pain and not worth the effort.

Cheers,
Ruppert

Are svn vendor branches still recommended for keeping custom ofbiz
up to
date, as described in:

Many thanks in advance
