Code Management

[pfyon]

How do you guys handle testing/deployment for your own servers? I'd like to keep my server code up to date with the svn, and do development on my main pc (using eclipse, since I use ssh to talk to the server).

What I thought I could do is create another svn repository on the server with symlinks to all the files for the eqemu source, that way I could commit changes to my server's svn from eclipse, and still be able to update from the eqemu svn. It'd give me all the advantages of using an svn like being able to compare the different revisions. Unfortunately (and I didn't know this before), svn repos do not contain the files in a traditional directory structure, so that doesn't work.

Anyone tell me how they handle their code modifications?
