Re: How to synchronise a SVN repository with a local one

Hello Daniel.

Thanks for your reply.

You are right I'm talking about copying changes (new commits) from one
repository to an other one.

My "working" repository is a local one located on the computer where I
do the source development.

The "sourceforge" repository should be used to publish my work once I
have reached a stable point and a new feature or a bug-fix is
implemented. Very important for me is to publish all revisions with
their comments to keep the history of development. Thus after "copy"
from my "working" repository to the repository at sourceforge should
have exactly the same content.

I played around a little bit to figure out if svnsync may help me (the
documentation about sounds good):

I thing now I have as additional problem to set up the hook at
sourceforge. What do you think about?

Best regards,
