I think it's a pretty common means of doing releases. I use bzr, one of the distributed Version Controlling Systems, with a webapp I wrote using cherrypy. It works out rather well as I don't have to deal with setting up svn as a server (or deal with svns quirks). Also, since branching is rather cheap in VCSs (at least in all the ones that I'm aware of), I have a much "safer" workflow. My workflow looks like this: 1. Branch from server to implement feature 2. Implement and commit on local machine 3. From server, merge in changes from local machine. This has worked well for me on projects that involved multiple people as well, as long as they kept up to date. I imagine that a lot of other peoples workflows are similar. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
