Subject: Request for suggestions: multiple revision control systems/repositories + org
Date: Sun, 19 Dec 2010 18:13:06 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D0E9F92.9020500@sift.info> (raw)

I am looking for hints.  I have a number of org files, typically one for
each major project plus two or three for my personal life.

These must often live in different revision control systems: my work
projects, in particular, have different repositories; I have a main set
of org files for work in ~/org/, tracked by my employers' svn;
occasionally, I do something outside, like work on a paper with someone
outside my company in a dedicated git repo; and I'd like to stuff my
personal materials off in a git repo of my own.

I have been pulling all of these together into my ~/org directory, using
symbolic links, for the benefit of mobile org.  That is, my ~/org
directory has my main work org files, plus links to a bunch of others.

That works well for syncing with mobile org.  Unfortunately, it's a mess
for Emacs's version control mode.  VC mode sees the .svn directory in
that place, and can handle the local files, but gets horribly confused
by the sym-linked files.

Anyone have a similar need to gather together a mess of org files, and
have a cleaner solution?

Extra credit if you have a way of creating the same set of symlinks on
more than one machine! ;-)

Thanks to all,
Robert
