Re: Question: Upgrading to most recent development release

Hopefully this will make sense

I have 4 directories, which I download the svn update to, and then copy them over to the live site:

/bbpresssvn

/buddypresssvn

/wordpresssvn

/privatedevsvn

By logging into the command line, I can do this

svn up

inside each of those 4 folders and it will update them to the newest trunk release. Then I run this command (or similar for buddypress)

cp -R * ../beta

and copy the files to the dev server. So far this has worked really well.

The private dev svn is where I upload my own plugins and themes I’m doing development on. This method is extremely fast as I never have to ftp any files between the internet, my laptop and back up to the web server. It does require command line access and knowledge of svn.

Hope this helps,

Brad
