Post Commit actions?

[Mike Howarth <Mi...@mamasandpapas.com>]

I was wondering if anyone can help me.

I've currently been working with Subversion locally and everything has
been working great.

I've then come to extend this to using subversion to keep my staged copy
on a remote server in sync. I've hit some real problems though, just
doing an update is really slow.

I've done a bit of reading around and it seems to point to Subversion
generally being slow across a network, this probably isn't helped by our
internet connection either.

The next thing I've looked at is creating a post commit hook that uses
svnlook to get a list of files, looking on cpan there is a module for
this.

Why not use rsync to push any changes to the remote host?  If you're
going across the general internet, you'll want to tunnel it through a
secure connection, but basically it was designed to do exactly this -
transfer only changes from point A to point B.
