The Ant feature I would like to create is something that I would like to use at work. I manage a 3 tier development system where we have a development, test and production environment. I have an Ant script doing all of the building for me and once it is built I want to copy the files to the test and production servers. To do this I want an Ant process that does something like rsync, but to start it will just do copying to local directories.
The sync process will do a comparison to check if files need to be created, replaced or deleted in the destination location. The behavior would also need to be configurable. I could create software which would do all of this outside of Ant, but it seems like a logical feature to add to Ant.
I would appreciate any feedback on this idea...
Thanks,
