Hi,
What is a good scheme of automating synchronization between a CVS repository
and a Web site (or does a repository have to be separated from the Web site
files [besides renaming the files from the ",v" suffix])? A co-worker & I
have recently decided to work with CVS on our ever-growing Web site, and I've
got CVS up & going, but lack an important piece of the puzzle - getting data
out of the repository and into the Web site (hopefully in an automated
fashion).
I have a couple of ideas, but before I go down a road that's surely been
traversed before, I'd love to get some input from the more travelled on the
list. I hope there's already a solution for this scenario, though I couldn't
find anything on the cvshome.org Web site or in a Google search.
Thanks,
Jason
PS: Here are some of my ideas:
1) Create a Perl script/Cron job (run every 15 minutes) which would basically
'cvs history -a -c -D "15 minutes ago"', parse that and affect the Web site
directories accordingly.
2) Create 'trigger' scripts which would be triggered when the developer
'commit'ed their changes, which would also affect the changes on the Web site
directories.
