One of the nice thing about Dropbox is that you can share files between various users. I will sometimes keep a Subversion repository on Dropbox, so I can access it on various systems. Right now, it's just for me to use.
Here's the scenario: * I have my Dropbox under $HOME/Dropbox. * I create a Subversion repository on $HOME/Dropbox/svn_repos * I now share my $HOME/Dropbox/svn_repos folder between my colleagues. What happens if we all start svnserve on that particular shared folder in Dropbox? Is there an issue with possible collisions if two or more people attempt to commit their changes at the same time? What if we skip the svnserve route and merely use the file:// protocol? Is this any safer? -- David Weintraub qazw...@gmail.com
