Is the .svn subfolder that tortoise-svn for example (on windows) creates a standard one? (that is other SVN clients will use that folder and understand the settings files in it?) If so, then the snapshot can contain such a folder (that is be checked out itself from the SVN) That way, one would get the snapshot, then just tell SVN to update the Lazarus source folder and rebuild to get the new compiled version (although it would be also nice to be able to do SVN update at the compiled folder too). Similarly the FPC folder could contain .svn or .cvs (if freepascal uses such) subfolder to be able to sync that too. Could have some readme.txt with a link to a Lazarus webpage that has links to popular SVN clients for the various platforms supported by Laz and some info on how to do the update (with tortoise-svn is as easy as right clicking the folder you want and doing "SVN checkout..." (won't need to set the SVN URL the first time since the .svn folder from the snapshot will contain it). That is assuming as I say before the .svn subfolder is something standard for storing client-side info by SVN clients ---------------- George Birbilis ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Computer & Informatics Engineer Microsoft MVP J# for 2004-2006 Borland "Spirit of Delphi" ++ QuickTime, Delphi, ActiveX, .NET components ++ http://www.kagi.com/birbilis ++ Robotics ++ http://www.mech.upatras.gr/~Robotics http://www.mech.upatras.gr/~robgroup _____ avast!
