The "repository" must still be created in a separate directory from the "checked out" copy - thus to me that is just like having a server/daemon setup. So to use SubVersion in a local environment via the file:/// protocol you in fact have THREE copies of the source code (shown listed below). No less effort that a full blown remote server setup - and the reason I say they [file:/// and http:///] are the same. 1. /path/to/repository (created with svnadmin) 2. The checked out copy you can see (created with 'svn co') 3. The extra FULL copy in the many .svn hidden directories just so svn can do diffs Still a crap load more work and waist of diskspace compared to "the forbidden Git". For more detailed instructions on a SubVersion setup, see the following URL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://opensoft.homeip.net:8080/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
