Re: Synchronize two CVS Server !

[Rob Helmer]

Hi Peter,


I would reccommend simply making your changes while on the road
and doing an update when you get back to the office. If there
are any conflicts, you can resolve them at that time...

If you really want to get conflict resolution done right away, 
as long as the repo back in your office is not being used you
can just copy the repo onto a laptop ( using tar or something ),
the only thing you need to worry about in this case is
syncing UIDs and GIDs.

Or, use cvsup ( http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/ )
to mirror the repository ( this way is cooler, the previous way
is IMHO easier, although if you do this alot it'd be worth your
while to set up cvsupd on the office repo ).


HTH,
Rob Helmer
