For what it's worth, I use SVN with isolated dev sandboxes working with trunk (or some branch). The production boxes have a webroot for staging (for detecting anything that might happen to manage to work differently in sandbox and production) and live sites. Each root is an svn copy, and there's a simple GUI to update either to a given tag in the repository. Issac Peter Milanese wrote: > Greetings- > > I am coming up with ideas for building a new farm.
