Ok, but I want to run them at the same time (as well as 7.6 and 7.5, but I can run them from their old SVN checkouts, if necessary). Is that possible from one clone? I don't care if it's 901 MB in size. I already do keep separate cache, prefs and log directories for each instance of the server that I run. Can the checkouts be to different locations, or is that not the way it's done? I'm still unclear about what is actually being pulled down when cloning. - 'git clone -n --depth 1' is 88 MB - 'git clone' is 901 MB - you mention 252 MB ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95917 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
