To all,
As a suggested future JUG topic, source code revision control would be
something I would be very interested in learning best practices and best in
class technologies.
I have my own on and off-site backups but I don't currently have a
formalized src version control. Any pointers or directions as to where to go
for more info would be appreciated as I want to get this setup for my
workflow.
Thanks,
Herb

Hi folks, I'm giving redmine a try..... I figured I'd leave it open for
others to try out as well. So if you want to sign up for an account on my
redmine install and play with it, feel free
http://plan.catskillcrafting.com/
Note: it's running on a subdomain of my still not up yet personal
website.....
Note2: I'm running it on it on Media Temple just because their easy and low

*I use their GS account with the Ruby container add on. I installed it using
the 64MB free container.....but had it crash a few times as it ran out of
memory, so I upgraded to the 128MB 20/month container.*

That's why I always setup svn on a remote, BACKED UP server. Has
nothing to do with operating system though :-)
For the Mac, I setup MobileMe for a previous job, and liked it enough
to keep it. You got TimeMachine on a local backup drive, iDisk for
important stuff (stored on the internet) and source code repositories
via svn/git on external servers. Now that's cooking!

You can also run your own Redmine/RoR server at Heroku for free:
* http://heroku.com/
And if that is too much work for you, you got two companies that host
your redmine for you, with additional goodies too:
* https://pmphq.com/
* http://plan.io/en/
Not affiliated with any of the above, just happy to see people FINALLY
attempting to actually manage projects and code :-)

Maybe you don't need to worry but I have dozens of sites to manage. Your
computer is not indestructible and it can also get stolen.
Where do you put these backups? On your computer or on a backup drive?
Every backup drive I've had has failed within months, so I don't count on
them either.
I cannot afford to lose an entire day's work so I keep my remote webserver
and local synchronized while I'm working.

Yeah, working locally is great, until something happens to your computer
and you lose everything.

Database and Joomla installations are a breeze. And I've done those more

I even realized how EASY it is to work on a Joomla site locally then

Yes - unfortunately. If you check the support forum, its had the full-on
spambot treatment.
Apparently the developer got sidetracked by another project, Symfony.

I'm a more hands-on kinda guy, but I can't get enough of macports. I
get everything, even the "hard stuff" that most folks never bother
trying on a Mac. I'd also like to point out to my good friend Gary
Mort that macports has...MongoDB. :-)

This is actually solid development practice, something I've been doing
for years, and it's the way we managed development of Joomla (and
Mambo before it). If Git is too modern for you and you just gotta
stick with subversion, you can try one of these:
* http://beanstalkapp.com/
* http://unfuddle.com/
If you develop websites for a living and don't use some sort of source
code revision control, you're making a HUGE mistake.
I setup subversion to run on a server - usually at ServerBeach - and
also provision that server with automated backups. I then checkout my
project on the local machine (laptop) where I do development. Whenever
I finish something, I simply commit, and that sends the new code up to
the subversion repository on the server, which in turn gets backed up.
I have a local external drive that I use for TimeMachine, more than
anything as a precaution in case my laptop gets too much coffee or
falls down the stairs late at night.
In the end, the likelihood of the following all happening at the exact
same time is very close to absolute zero:
* external drive fail
* laptop fail
* server fail
* datacenter backup systems fail
And after some thought, if all these things failed at the same time
then I probably got bigger problems than some stupid website.

For all the mac-users out there, would you be interested in me giving
a session on setting up a MacBookPro for web development? It would
cover using macports, and setting up PHP, apache, MySQL and svn/git.
Also would include how to manage your development workflow with remote
servers and whatnot.
I could probably host it at an Apple Store.
If there's any interest I'll take a look into it.
