I wrote this to simply backup a site. Its quick and dirty, but gets the job done. Save this file as “savesite” or whatever you want and “chmod +x {filename}”. If its hushed-up a bit it can be set as a cronjob. I’ll mess around with this when its not 1:30am on a thursday.

Edit: I just started using subversion and like it way better — CVS has been retired for now. This is partially because SVN works from my office and CVS doesn’t
This is just a simple way to setup CVS on your dreamhost account. My current setup is that I do most of my development on my [...]

Since I’m always in the terminal anyway its just become a habit to rm .DS_Store when i come accross them. Today I decided that this is like killing 1 rabbit while the [...]
