darenw's Journal: Marvels of Subversion

Cold, snowy, windy....more so tomorrow. To work from home tomorrow becomes appealing. Thanks to Subversion, i can check out files from various projects and crank away. No mucking aroun in a telnet or SSH session, making tarballs, tapping in long URLs that i dont' get right the first time. just a dumb-simple "svn update". Many use subversion every day, as we all make use of indoor plumbing, artificial lighting, and other marvels of modern invention, thinking of our task at hand but hardly ever thinking of these technologies themselves. Except, of course, for plumbers, electricians, and software developers.

I am very glad for Subversion and look forward to working from home tomorrow.
