Hello Chiefdelphi,

My team is blessed with having 7 programmers this year. Obviously, we need to use Version Control. We are using Java this year (hence my posting in this forum), so I would *like* to use a VCS supported in NetBeans (aka: Subversion). I've messed around with Bazaar some and set up an FTP server on my computer...but that is turning into a massive headache. I have a feeling somebody out there has had a similar issue before, so I'm asking for a simple step-by-step process to set this up.

Here's the deal: many locations we work in do not have adequate internet access to make an *online* central repository workable. As a result, I want our central repository *offline* on my laptop, accessible via our team's wireless network. I also want to be able to work on code for the robot from the same laptop. In other words, I want to have both a "working branch" and "the central repository" on the same computer. I would also like to make a script to mirror the repository on my laptop online, to our team's website (I think I can figure this out myself later...).

Oh, did I mention that I'm on a Mac?

I suppose my question is entirely clear, but what has *your team* done in a similar situation to meet their needs? What do you recommend? Again, if there's an all-in-one manual for this, I would be eternally grateful to you.

Thanks a MILLION,
-Matt Anderson
