I am now thinking about the issue of checking out to a network drive. It looks like over the years this has generated a number of issues for the community. So I would be very interest to hear if this has caused anyone any problems? -
The big issue is storing a repository on a network drive and having everyone access it via the file:// protocol. That is a bad idea . On many Unix systems, your home directory is a network drive, and on Windows systems, the My Directory is a share. So, doing a checking out on a network is not that rare and may be the only way you can do a check out. -- David Weintraub -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
