Subversion

Just wondering anyone using subversion for version control to keep track your files revision (images, sites, LP or whatever ) ?

I thought of it, using svn or git as I use it for dev. but I ended up just using folders and files version...not sure if its a real benefit with all the different type of files we deal with..

I heard that subversion can tag binary files such as images

I use git on my entire folder full of websites. Once I'm done I just do a "git push web" and it mirrors my folder structure to the web server

Havn't you heard brah, SVN is soooo last year, it's all about Git this season.

Git probably is better but I'm staying with SVN, I couldn't be arsed moving. Yeah, I version control most things. Android projects in Eclipse obviously and static-ish LPs that be can be tested just by opening the browser locally. I havn't setup a system yet for PHP/MySQL projects where you have to upload to the server first anyway to test to see if it works. Once you start you'll wonder why you didn't always use it.

just set up a local apache and test your .php stuff on there.

ah ya, i know that's the recommended solution but i'm just too lazy to get all the PHP modules i need on the local install when i'd be uploading to 3 different servers with differnt PHP modules installed.

are you running some hardcore server side apps on your LP's that fall in that category? I cant imagine anything more than a basic hostgator setup would be meet the PHP requirement for traffic arbitraging.(yeah, i know shared hosting cant handle BW that comes with PPV).

a local vps to tst your shit before uploading to the production server, I have samba setup, no more ftp ? just hit save, the files are there. git is so good ? I'm kinda outdated

Yeah I use SC for your standard LP's, they don't even have much PHP code in them at all anyway. I don't use it for other stuff like big custom websites or Magento installs, stuff that's nothing to do with affiliate marketing.

I think out of habit now I just use git for all my SCM needs. I mostly use capistrano (https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano) for the actual deploying of code to servers.
