Subversion: setting up a remote repository and running my site off it?
- by Matt Andrews
Hi all.
I'm new to SVN and have experimented with it locally on my Dreamhost test server (which has a Subversion "one-click-install" function).
Having found my way around the functionality I'm definitely sold, but a little lost about using it to manage my work website (not hosted with Dreamhost, so not offering a one-click SVN installation).
Am I correct in thinking that I can set up a repository on my website root (which contains all the files), and then when I develop new features and run a commit, this will update my site? Is this the proper workflow for this sort of thing?
If so, is there a standard way to set this kind of thing up on my remote server?
Thanks.
