Re: general svn question for large env

Hi,

The way I've always worked in a dev environment:

1. Developers check out relevant working copy of trunk (or branch where
necessary) onto local PC -- if using windows, then tortiseSVN or a
plugin for your dev environment makes this a bit easier...
        svn co repositoryname workingfolder
2. Changes are checked in against trunk/branch, then tagged as a dev
build (and any merges done if required)
        svn copy trunk/branchpath tagpath
3. Tagged Dev build is exported (or checked out) onto dev box for dev test
        svn export devtagpath dir
4. Tag ready for test is then exported or checked out to stage box
        svn export testtagpath dir
5. On passing test, build is retagged as a production build number
        svn copy testtagpath stagetagpath
        svn export stagetagpath dir
6. Production version is checked out or exported onto production box (if
prod servers are able to access your repository - otherwise just copy it
from the staging server using whatever method - FTP, scp, rsync etc)
        svn copy stagetagpath prodtagpath
        svn export prodtagpath dir

Dev/stage versions of tags can then be removed if required to save
space. Of course, if changes are made, the process should be repeated
(to make sure you dont miss any testing stages).

Hope that helps! Would be good to know how others do this also... we
also mix in ant builds at each stage to enable deployment of our java
apps to the application servers, but other environments may not require
that.

Cheers
Rachael
