[Asterisk-Users] Config Revision Control

[Bruce Reeves]

I use subversion on a central server and then store each server that is
different. The purpose behind it for me was 2 fold, first I have a backup of
my configs centeralized and I can roll-back any changes. Second, I can
checkout a servers files on a different machine to edit them if I want and
check them back when finished. What I meant by file-level is if I edit
sip.conf and check it in then the whole svn goes to a new version, not just
that file. We use a M$ product that has version control at the file level,
so for each file in the library there is a version history.
