I’m currently in the process of trying out Tailor<\/a> to convert the CVS<\/a> repository that stores the revision history of my website to bzr<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’ve been meaning to try bzr again for ages, and here’s the excuse. I’m going to see if this is going to work well for me.<\/p>\n

Basically, what I do is I hack things locally, test, then rsync<\/a> to web host. I blog using the live webhost site and rsync back (with a mysqldump before the rsync<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The only thing I’m really noticing at the moment is that the import speed seems to be fairly slow. If I were doing this on a mysql<\/a> tree, I’d probably just go to bed. or wait until next week.<\/p>\n
