Trying to start a project and need a little guidance.
I am completely new to svn and have been programming php for a couple
months now.

Heres where i am at and what i want to do:
1. I am starting a new project and want to use subversion for it.
2. I have subversion installed on my computer at work and at home.
3. I installed a repository for the project on dreamhost under the
domain of the site.

My question is, how do i start the project on my machine to have it
commit changes to the dreamhost so i can work from anywhere.

Thanks
Jason

That's a (basic) subversion question, not a PHP one. However: you make a
checkout (svn co) from the repository on your local machine, preferably
at a place where you usually store your work/websites, you alter the
code, and you commit (svn ci). If you alone work with it, just do an
update of your local code (svn update) if you switch computers,
otherwise naturally more often. If you want it to appear as files on
your site, you can checkout & update there too. Keep in mind that if you
make new files you have to run svn add to get them into the repository.
Of course, there are several GUI clients available to make life more
pleasant, I don't know which would be advisable for Mac OS X though.

For more detailed question I'd advise the subversion documentation /
groups / forums.

Did you ask in the subversion support forums? They probably get
questions like this all of the time.

Hint: when asking about a product, your best bet for a good answer is to
ask in that product's support structure first (or check their FAQ's).

(shamelessly plugging my own howto)

This howto:
http://www.howtoforge.org/set-up-a-m...r-php-websites

contains some issues that specifically deal with the combination of PHP
and subversion.

Best regards

Thanks Everyone! next time ill ask in more specific forums. sorry
about that.
