svn update
often.
The longer it takes before you update, the harder it will be for
SVN to merge your changes with the changes done by other
developers.svn update
before you commit, to make
sure your file is up to date. Otherwise, you risk overwriting
changes that other people have done in the meantime.svn status
is a handy way to make
sure you're about to commit the correct files.svn diff
before
committing. This is particularly important with 'live code',
that may get copied automatically to the APT repository or
the main web site.Bad log | Good log |
