Hello Alexandre, I use Mercurial for my web2py projects and use hooks to execute scripts (shell scripts, python scripts etc.) when something 'happens' with the repository (a commit or a push, for example). I have a 'central' mercurial repository on my server that actually copy the new files to the app environment and restart Apache (it can use hg log etc. to see what files were modified). The correct here is to push to a central repository and have a hook to run the integration tests and, if all the integration tests pass, so integration system can start a hook to update app (or event the central repository if it knows how tests were - failed or passed). We can talk better on Portuguese on the web2py-users-brazil list. :) > -- > Atenciosamente > > -- > ========================= > Alexandre Andrade > Hipercenter.com -- Álvaro Justen - Turicas http://blog.justen.eng.br/ 21 9898-0141
