This is how I do this:

I use subversion for this. Every server has its own branch.
There's also a branch called 'common'
All the server specific branches are svn-copied and svnmerge
init from this branche.
Then the svn automerge thingie Kevin wrote for the asterisk
svn tree is automerging changes to the 'common' tree to all
the server trees.
In the server trees I make changes specific for one server.

This works like a charm.

Combine this with an auto svn update on the servers to get
the same setup as I have ;)
