Question

On my linux virtual server I have subversion running, everything is working fine. As a single developer I use 1 checkout on my local machine (max osx), edit files, commit and so on, everything is fine. What I want: I want a second checkout on a different machine (no problem). On that location I want to edit files (no problem) and commit it to the repository. So my question: Is it better (or necessary) to use a second "virtual" user when working with a second checkout directory? - like "simulating" as if there were two developers? Or is it no problem to use the one and only subversion user I have created managing and working with two or more checkout directories?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Subversion doesn't mind either way.

Normally, you would use the same user on both machines.

If you consider it useful to use two different accounts, you can do that, too.
