Is the same also true for sharing a sandbox? I plan to do the following:
I have a notebook and a pc, both running Win 2000. I mainly work on the pc,
but when I'm abroad, I want to work on the notebook. So I want to keep the
sandbox on the notebook and share it (as a Windows share) to the pc. I will
never work on both computers at the same time, so there should not be any
issues with concurrent accesses.
Or should I rather create two sandboxes and use commit/update to synchronize
them?
