Thanks again for the reply and the link. One thing that is not 100% clear is whether or not people are actually checking out from SVN (from whatever branch) directly on production (and possibly running Ant tasks there as well). I'd really like to avoid that.
If that's not what you are suggesting, do you recommend using the vendor/branch strategy on a development server and then promoting it to the other various environments, including production, by archive/pack, copy to the target environment(s), and unpacking on the target? J
