Re: repository on network share

[Alexander von Below]

Excuse me for not answering, but adding to the question:

One of my repositories is only used by myself. I would like to access 
it on several machines, one of them being a notebook.
Those of you familiar know the iDisk from Apple, which is basically a 
WebDAV drive, with the option of having that drive "synchornized" 
locally.

So, my idea was to put my repository to the iDisk. For the desktops, 
that is a network share. The notebook can access it "live" when 
connected, or offline through the synchronized copy. In this special 
case, I can be sure that noone else is accessing the rep while I am 
working in the offline copy, and sync it back later (via the iDisk 
mechanism)

Bad idea?

Also, if other developers have smart ideas how to access a repository 
while on the road (i.e. without server access), I am happy to hear 
those ideas.

Thanks,

Alex
