While I am an experienced svn user, I was looking for any hints and ideas I could pick up from you. I've been thinking about using svn:externals for a while for some of our internal libraries that we share between web apps. Your explanation of the use makes it clear that it is easier than I was seeing in the documentation. Thanks!</p><p>One thing you should recognize about this series, while most people will never edit the WP core, it is a great example of how to use subversion. I did a similar series on my site, in recommending a svn repo for maintaining the entire <a href="http://blog.cdchase.com/tag/subversion/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://blog.cdchase.com/tag/subversion/">code base for a web site</a>. Then there are those that develop plugins or fix other's plugins, like me. Makes it easier to provide diff's back to the original author.</p>Dan ChaseSun, 27 May 2007 11:56:09 -0000http://technosailor.com/2007/05/11/customized-wordpress-reasons-for-doing-it/#comment-928702057<p>I would love to find out how to use svn to maintain a whole array of blogs on different servers - so you add plugins and hacks and themes to the central version and have it displayed on all the blogs in the array. A to-the-point clear tutorial would be awesome if that is not asking too much of you!</p><p>Thanks.</p>Routine OrderMon, 14 May 2007 16:43:53 -0000
