This second link in turn has references at the end. I worked on a web site for a while; I was one of a half-dozen developers. We each had our own copy of the site and our own instance of the web server but we shared the same development database. I don't remember how the graphics designers worked, but I think they ended up moving to CVS as well. So a little more elaborate than what Greenspun describes. Basically CVS (or any other rev control system) works great with the html, scripts and SQL queries. It doesn't do much good with database schemas; changes to those end up being managed outside of CVS. -- pa at panix dot com _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
