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
