Re: Running svnsync from post-commit hook

Hello Joshua,

Thanks for your suggestion...

There's the trust level issue--no, indeed, I cannot give such an
access to everybody, and it doesn't only depend on me-- but I thought
even more of the manageability issue: there are many committers, over
different continents, with whom synchronization is not easy.

Now, your setup suggestion may alleviate that...

Very interesting.

Sorry?
We are supporting http as well as ssh, with an apache server.

How can this help us?
Idem, I didn't consider svnserve... Not mentioned in the page about
replication either.

Still puzzled...
