Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] data sync

Not to be a subversion zealot but I've been using it to back up my home
directory for a while now and it's great. I have a web hosting account
with dreamhost (that's not a plug nor a recommendation) and they have
subversion available. I have a directory in my /home called mikesfiles
and I put things I need backed up in there. All I have to do is check
the stuff in and out.  It works out for me because I never know what
state my home pc or my laptop will be in, so it's a remote backup
solution in a sense.

I'm sure other syncing software can do the job but it really is worth it
if you know subversion already, because it's F/OSS, and it does offer
many other options, especially in a case where you have a secure remote
machine holding your files. It's actually saved my butt a few times
where I forgot my laptop and needed some files that I had in my repo.
