Re: [Flashcoders] Reverse Compiling

[Joe Minkiewicz]

You could also get a free 2GB Dropbox account, put all your current project
files in there, then move them to an external drive when the project's over.
They save every version of your files for (I think) 30 days so it's like a
poor man's version control.

Also, I haven't used the feature yet but the shared hosting plan I use for
my personal website includes svn and git repository hosting. If you have
similar you wouldn't have to set up your own server and client to use them.

Later,
Joe

That's why I make my own backups too.
It's a 2nd level undo.

Do you want an SVN client on a Mac, or do you want to have a Mac SVN server?

I've installed SVN on a Linux server, and the client on Mac and PC.
I've never used the Mac as the host, though.

If you have a Mac just get a Time Capsule. Has saved my life and sanity a
few times. ;) And its really easy to use. I have backups I can access all
the way back to November 2008 up to an hour ago.

Re: [Flashcoders] Reverse Compiling

Obvious but perhaps helpful: Installing a source control server on the same
machine that you're working won't get you too far in terms of disaster
recovery.

For the lightweight developer who does not have a setup for a separate
machine running as a server or hosted solution, I would just recommend the
usual frequent backups on an external drive. Iterate your fla filenames from
time to time as they can become corrupt. I also use LiveMesh to sync between
several machines, which in essence becomes a cloud-based ersatz backup,
(although without any provisions for rollback/versioning).
