svn

Hey Guys,

I am using beanstalkapp.com SVN for my D6 and planning to use CCK FileField to upload images to create a video gallery. Is anyone did this ? Please replay if this is possible.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I am setting up a new Drupal site. As far as SVN goes I am looking at the best practices. how existing SVN structures have been modeled. I am thinking of just having the sites folder in the SVN but am open to suggestions. Also how did you create the branches - Split between two thoughts - One to have each release as a branch and the other create a separate branch for module / theme / scripts / files.

I am looking at various options and looking forward for some advice.

Thanks!

Can anyone recommend a good SVN hosting vendor for a small sized agency. Looking for reliability, security, ease of use, and decent pricing. We currently host svn in-house but am looking to move SVN off site.

I store all my updated themes and modules in my SVN repository.
How can I get Aegir to recognize my themes and modules from an SVN repository, so I can use them to migrate a new site?

Example of where a theme is stored:
svn+ssh://user@server/var/lib/svnroot/drupal/themes/drupal_6/production/basic

Example if where my themes are stored for a specific platform on my aegir server:
/var/aegir/drupal-6.16/sites/default/themes

EDIT: Changed theme path

I just thought I post a little information about a presentation I am going to be giving at the October meetup. At the last meetup, I was asked if I would mind giving a presentation on the use of GitHub in managing Drupal projects. We have pretty much switched all of our development versioning to Git at CollectiveColors.com, because it has shown to have significant benefits in our own development processes.

Git makes it easier for us because:

1. It allows us to better collaboratively develop our software while minimizing the impact of code conflicts.
2. Allows us to easily track what we have developed.
3. Branching and merging of repositories is a breeze.
4. It is very easy to turn any directory tree into a Git repository.
5. Git submodules are perfect for Drupal development.

We have learned a lot of really cool methods for managing software projects using Git and GitHub, so we figured that we would share some of what we have learned in our journey so far. Although, I have a rough outline of what I want to talk about during this presentation, I am open to hearing your suggestions, after all I'm not presenting to myself.

So what I am thinking so far? ...

Hey guys,

I have a document root with code I would like subversion manage and apache operate.
Is sounds like /var/www is owned by root:root and nobody else can checkout from cvs, edit or copy a file
Should I create a Group and Add www-data and SVN username into new Group?

Kind Regards,
Jorge.

Hey all,
I've finally gotten to the point of moving my site into the "real world" and off of my desktop running XAMPP. I'm trying to do things proper and I've set up a SVN server at Beanstalk (www.beanstalkapp.com/). So, at this point I'm trying to figure out how to best manage the site and the repository. I'm a SVN newbie, so I'm struggling with how I should go about adding my site files to the repository. I'm using Tortoise SVN for windows. So, should I make a new repository and add the whole Drupal installing into that folder? Or, should I create a repository inside the drupal folder and add the /sites/.. folder into the repository?
I ultimately want to be to be able to have the main live site get committed to the repository every day, then get copied to a test site. I'm just not sure how to best get things initially set up.

Hey there fellow Drupaleros,

I'm seeking peer review of my video about my CVS/SVN workflow regarding deployment for a multisite setup. I'd learned about vendor branching and svn:externals a few months ago and finally got around to setting up a system I was happy with.

What I'm wondering is if I could do anything better or how other people are doing similar things, but slightly different.

All feedback is welcome, leave comments on the site or email me via gdo.

I'm just wrestling with setting up subversion for the first time (slightly ashamed to admit to having put it off for so long) and thought this would be an interesting topic for a community skillshare afternoon one weekend, or perhaps an upcoming meetup.

Does anyone have any interest in either learning about this, or sharing their knowledge?
