Hello,
I'm no subversion-specialist, but I know that the coda-filesyztem has
support for this kind of behaviour. However, it needs a subversion-handler
to resolve subversion-specific conflict-situations. Coda is designed to
work when servers (also server/server, ... I think) and/or clients become
disconnected. http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/.
I hope this helps and it is amybesome promotion for coda. However, it
would be nice if there would be a subversion-handler for coda. I have to
tell however, that I only looked at coda, but haven't used it myself. At
the moment it may be that the filesize-limit may be annoying. The
handler-code isn't maybe ready for production use yet (last time I looked:
couple of months ago). You should determine for youself if Coda is ok for
you ...
Greetings,
Michel
